Hi,

I think that it's going to be difficult to spell "queu[e]ing" consistently
in all of the kernel documentation.  SCSI Tagged Command Queuing seems to be
usually spelled without the 'e', but for Queueing Theory, it's a toss-up (can
be spelled either way), so the extra 'e' is not incorrect.

                      Either:               paths include

The other changes look good.

Please make a few more corrections and resend the patch.
