If I intend to merge the patches then I surely have looked at them
deeply. I don't have to send a reviewed-by just to apply them
afterwards.
There was enough motion on these patches and this posting is in your
inbox for 6 weeks now without any reaction from you.
The TPM changes are very much independent from the x86 specific ones, so
why do you want x86 review tags in order to look at the ones which are
specific to your subsystem especially as some of them seem to address
real short comings there independent of trenchboot.
