I have verified internally and for this series of patches you can change the tags as you seem fit. For all the patches in series besides the last one, you can change all SoBs besides mine to Reviewed-By. For the last patch you can put me either as Reviewed-By only or also with SoB if you think that's necessary. Thanks and sorry for the trouble. -Liran
