 From Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst:

Both Tested-by and Reviewed-by tags, once received on mailing list from tester
or reviewer, should be added by author to the applicable patches when sending
next versions.  However if the patch has changed substantially in following
version, these tags might not be applicable anymore and thus should be removed.
Usually removal of someone's Tested-by or Reviewed-by tags should be mentioned
in the patch changelog (after the '---' separator).

Again, from Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst:

.. the patch (series) and its description should be self-contained.
This benefits both the maintainers and reviewers.  Some reviewers
probably didn't even receive earlier versions of the patch.

Note that the same document also says:

Wait for a minimum of one week before resubmitting or pinging reviewers
- possibly longer during busy times like merge windows.

I could just send another series of Reviewed-by: tags, but quite frankly
by now I am wary that you might drop those again, so I guess I'll wait
a while to see if there is another version of the series.
