Thanks for looking over the patches! Acked-by is used in the kernel by a maintainer to acknowledge the changes to his particular subsystem in a patch that affects many subsystems, or for maintainers to say "yeah, looks good to me." We use it in Mesa to say "yeah, the idea seems good" without really saying that we've reviewed the contents of the patch itself. The kernel docs describe what a Reviewed-by really means here [1], but basically it's that (1) I read the patch, (2) I'm satisfied with the patch, (3) I think the patch is worthwhile, and (4) I'm not making any guarantees. :-) Can I upgrade your Acked-bys to Reviewed-bys?
