scsi: ufs: core: Fix typos in error messages

To the syzbot maintainers: I think this is a good example of a bisection result that is wrong. It is unlikely that fixing typos in kernel messages would affect whether or not the kernel hangs. Additionally, as far as I know, the systems used by syzbot (Google Compute Engine virtual machines) do trigger any code in the UFS driver.
