[PATCH] fs/eventpoll.c: fix spelling

From: Daniel Baluta
Date: Sun Jan 30 2011 - 16:42:48 EST


eventpoll.c has wonderful comments but some annoying typos
sneaked in:
* toepoll_ctl -> to epoll_ctl
* rapresent -> represents
* sructure -> structure
* machanism -> mechanism
* trasfering -> transferring
