User B should remove "need-review".  Code in gerrit has its own review
process and it shouldn't be necessary to keep the keywords in Bugzilla
up to date.  User B should make sure that the bug has a comment
referring to his gerrit submission.

Leave a comment with your thoughts.  You could also remove the
"need-review" keyword and, optionally, mark the patch as obsolete.
Marking it as obsolete is a pretty strong statement, though.

Remove the "need-review" and leave a comment with your suggestions.
Directing the submitter to gerrit for future submissions is a good idea,
too, but that might add another step that that makes future submissions
improbable.

Remove the "need-review" keyword and direct the submitter to gerrit or
submit it to gerrit on their behalf.  Make sure you refer to the bug
number in first line of the commit message (see
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/13855/ for an example).  Other people
will then have a chance to review it and it may be merged.

If you don't have a gerrit account, apply for one or find someone who
does to apply the patch.

Oops! I guess I opened the can and not you!

Mark.
