The "# note" after the tag solves the problem partially, if people were
actually using it. Solves people looking at the Git commit and being
mislead by partial review applying to entire commit. Does not solve
credits, because Rb for three lines is not the same as for 100.

>From v1 of this patch, four people (Alain, Lab, Troy, Kunihiko) did not
use it even though reviewing only part. Only Wolfram, so 20% of partial
reviews, used that syntax. Without that syntax, b4 will pick up Rb tag
like it was for entire commit.

So I do repeat - if one does not want to use that syntax, then just Ack,
instead of creating false impression of reviewing everything.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
