Please also fix the case in arch/powerpc/include/asm/eeh.h

The subject should use the correct prefix. You can see what it should be
using:

$ git log --oneline arch/powerpc/kernel/eeh_pe.c

Please give the patch a better subject, not "some typos", tell me what
misspelling you're fixing. Same comment for the commit description.

While you're changing it you could also mention what the units of the

Hi Michael,

Thank you very much for your suggestions. I will implement them
and send a v2 patch.

You mentioned I need to specify the units of "PE auxiliary data size".
Is the unit BYTES? Sorry for the silly question, I am only beginning
to contribute to the linux kernel.

Thanks & Regards,
Ghanshyam Agrawal
