It was not meant specifically to you, but I won't discourage you from
doing reviews of course. The period where a review is expected can vary
and is bound to the development cycle of kernel. At the latest, they
should come before the integration branch is put togheter (before the
merge window), and for the rc's it's before the next schedule (less than
a week).

The reviewed-by tag has a real meaning and weight in the community

and besides that, subscribes the person to the blame game and can cause
bad feelings if the code turns out to be buggy later on.
