It does say "patches that meet likely-community-consensus requirements can be 
committed prior to an explicit review" and "where there is any uncertainty, a 
patch should be reviewed prior to being committed".
It can be hard to judge what is a likely-community-consensus without being an 
active member of the community, which is why it's safer to go down the 
pre-commit review path.

Also note that when I said that "all patches are expected to be reviewed", that 
included both pre-commit and post-commit review. I deliberately used passive 
voice because in the latter case, there's nothing for you (as the patch author) 
to do. It's generally up to the owners of individual components to ensure that 
all patches going in get reviewed by someone. Since there's no paper trail, 
this is very hard to verify, but I can tell you that people do that, and that 
it's not a good way to introduce yourself to someone.
