 Testing my website with the W3C validator, it gives me the error

 "Bad value 'nope' for attribute 'autocomplete' on element 'textarea'".

 Instead of "nope" the value should be "off".

 The textarea is created in my comments template (comments.php) using
 comment_form() function.

 The problem occurred after updating to Wordpress 4.8.0 (stable).

 To reproduce the problem:
 1. Open your wordpress blog.
 2. Go to a page that contains a comment form.
 3. View the page source and look for 'autocomplete="nope"'.
