I'd prefer a pull request. The most important bit to me is actually the
tag description, not the signature. I'll go through the contents once
more anyway, which should be enough for me to merge it.

A signed tag is still better than one without a signature, that way at
least your key is part of the git history and we can confirm that another
pull request came was signed with the same key, even if we don't know
who you are ;-)

When you create a new key, please follow the directions from
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/process/maintainer-pgp-guide.rst
andyway, so you can add it to the keyring after you have collected the
signatures.
