I'm not a reviewer, as I'm waiting to be sponsored, but I can help out:

rpmlint still shows warning on the RPM, I'm not sure if you're absolutely
required to fix these as they're minor, but they're there nonetheless:

W: ren setup-not-quiet
You should use -q to have a quiet extraction of the source tarball, as this
generate useless lines of log ( for buildbot, for example )

W: ren macro-in-%changelog defattr
Macros are expanded in %changelog too, which can in unfortunate cases lead
to the package not building at all, or other subtle unexpected conditions that
affect the build.  Even when that doesn't happen, the expansion results in
possibly "rewriting history" on subsequent package revisions and generally
odd entries eg. in source rpms, which is rarely wanted.  Avoid use of macros
in %changelog altogether, or use two '%'s to escape them, like '%%foo'.

W: ren macro-in-%changelog _mandir
Macros are expanded in %changelog too, which can in unfortunate cases lead
to the package not building at all, or other subtle unexpected conditions that
