A patch series that aims to clarify what the purpose of the Acked-by tag is, in order to help newcomers understand the kernel process better, as well as to give extra flexibility on the usage of the Acked-by tag.
It formalizes one of the proposals from [1]: "# Suffix" for Acked-by. I hope this helps!
