I installed lintian and found no option to support sort. Can anyone give me more
specific instructions on how to use it?

Although I don't understand the perl language, after reading commit 66b47b4a9dad
("checkpatch: look for common misspellings"), it seems to match from top to bottom.
So, as Andy Shevchenko says, they should be sorted by frequency of the word usage.

I really don't know the details of the implementation of
scripts/checkpatch.pl --types=typo_spelling. Are only misspelled words involved in
spelling.txt matching? Otherwise, if correctly spelled words are also traversed,
sorting by frequency makes no sense. Because the correct number of words is far more
than the wrong number of words. If that's the case, then my modified script could
come in handy.

And if only misspelled words involved in spelling.txt matching, do we really need
spelling.txt? Just output the misspelled words is enough. I don't think anyone needs
to follow the tips to complete the fix.
