Do you already have some special meaning for the "Under Review"? That

a patch.

Under Review means patch has passed the basic triage and will be applied
to netdev trees unless instructed otherwise. Practically speaking it's 
not expected to go via any sub-tree and the patchwork build bot 
results look sane.

At least that's what it used to mean, with the advances in automatic
delegation it seems that Dave is using the state less these days, I
still follow the old protocol.

Sub-maintainers in netdev are historically asked not to change
patchwork state. The review delegation does not really work great for
netdev, since there can only be one delegate and we use it to split
user space tools vs netdev vs bpf. A more flexible scheme where
maintainer remains as a delegate but multiple reviewers can be attached
would be great, that's what I was alluding to earlier.
