[PATCH] spelling changes backported from 2.5.9 to 2.4.19-pre7

[Daniel Dickman]

Hi,

Here are some random Documentation changes that could be backported to the 2.4.x series. These apply cleanly to 2.4.19-pre7. The following files are modified:

- Documentation/DMA-mapping.txt
- Documentation/IRQ-affinity.txt
- Documentation/SubmittingDrivers
