Fix the following typos in the Documentation/ABI/ directory:
- In file obsolete/sysfs-cpuidle, change "obselete" for "obsolete".
- In file removed/sysfs-kernel-uids, change "propotional" for "proportional".
- In directory stable/, fix the following words: "associtated" for "associated",
"hexidecimal" for "hexadecimal", "vlue" for "value", "csed" for "caused" and
"wrtie" for "write". This updates a total of five files.
- In directory testing/, fix the following words: "subystem" for "subsystem",
"isochrnous" for "isochronous", "Desctiptors" for "Descriptors", "picutre" for
"picture", "capture" for "capture", "occured" for "ocurred", "connnected" for
"connected","agressively" for "aggressively","manufacturee" for "manufacturer"
and "transaction" for "transaction", "malformatted" for "incorrectly formated"
,"internel" for "internal", "writtento" for "written to", "specificed" for
"specified", "beyound" for "beyond", "Symetric" for "Symmetric". This updates
a total of eleven files.
