Submitting patches is clear on that:
"A Reviewed-by tag is a statement of opinion that the patch is an"
Not "the patch or part of patch"

And ack:
" It is a record that the acker has at least reviewed the patch ....
Acked-by: does not necessarily indicate acknowledgement of the entire
patch."

So no, reviewing part of the patch means you Ack it. Especially that in
git log the Rb tag will suggest entire patch was reviewed, while it was
not true. Review of 80% of patch did not happen.

Best regards,
