CLEANUP: pattern: fix spelling/grammatical/copy-paste in comments

The code is horrible to work with because most functions are documented
with misleading comments resulting from many spelling and grammatical
mistakes, and plenty of remains of copy-paste mentioning arguments that
do not exist and return values that are never set. Too many hours wasted
writing non-working code because of assumptions resulting from this,
let's fix this once for all now!
