I have been contributing upstream for about 15 years if you see the git log, often when someone chats privately with me like you did and they told me they are ok with a patch, I save them the trouble and add their review tag especially after they already added their tag to all my other patches. Surprisingly though this is probably the first time anyone has been pissed off about it.  Anyway I will not add your tag henceforth unless you publicly reply (or you let me know otherwise by chat).

If they just say they are OK with a patch, that would just mean an
Acked-by, not a Reviewed-by.

In any case, the documentation states those tags cannot be added
without permission -- if someone gives you a tag privately, it is best
that you tell them to please send it in the mailing list instead. That
way there is no confusion and others (including tooling, e.g.
patchwork and b4) can see it.

Thanks!

Cheers,
Miguel
