Thanks Ard. I still need a Reviewed-by on this patch to complete the series.

Actually, you don't but I suppose there is some difference of
interpretation here.

In the Linux community (where these tags originated), an ack from a
maintainer means 'no objections, feel free to apply this to code that
I maintain'. In this case, I am not 100% sure what the change means,
so I am not comfortable claiming that I reviewed it, but given that
this is your area of expertise rather than mine, I trust that you know
what you are doing. Hence the acked-by.

In other cases, I may rely on another person's expertise and their
reviewed-by to decide whether or not to merge something, rather than
review it myself. In this case, the acked-by is implied by the fact
that I decided to merge the PR (and therefore somewhat redundant). But
it comes down to the same thing.

If there is a Tianocore rule that says every patch needs a reviewed-by
from a maintainer, we should probably fix that. It is *not* the job of
a maintainer to review everything (and this wouldn't scale to begin
with) - rather, it is their job to ensure that everything that gets
merged has been reviewed sufficiently, either by themselves or by
other people they have confidence in.

I was under the impression we had this conversation a few years ago and agreed a maintainer Ack was sufficient. Have we failed to document that fact?
