  * This file implements functions needed to recover from unclean un-mounts.
  * When UBIFS is mounted, it checks a flag on the master node to determine if
- * an un-mount was completed sucessfully. If not, the process of mounting
+ * an un-mount was completed successfully. If not, the process of mounting
  * incorparates additional checking and fixing of on-flash data structures.
  * UBIFS always cleans away all remnants of an unclean un-mount, so that
  * errors do not accumulate. However UBIFS defers recovery if it is mounted
