Some typos in draft 2

[Thomas Huth]

Hi,

not sure whether they've been discovered yet, but here are some small
typos in the virtio v1.0 draft 2:

- Chapter 5.1.6 Device Operation:
"In each case, the packet itself is preceeded by a header"
==> s/preceeded/preceded/

- In the footnote on page 58 (chapter 5.1.6.4.3):
"Since there are no guarentees, it can use a hash filter ..."
==> s/guarentees/guarantees/

- Chapter 5.2.7.1 Legacy Interface: Device Operation (page 65):
"... this request acts as a barrier and that all preceeding requests
SHOULD be complete ..."
==> s/preceeding/preceding/
