I have attended a session at Linaro Connect where this was discussed
and the answer was:

Acked-by: is more of a general agreement from the person that he is
fine with the patch, but he might not have done a very careful review
and he isn't really responsible for the patch's content.

Reviewed-by: is a more strict tag and implies that the reviewer has
reviewed it at his best and he is as much responsible for the content
of the patch as the author.
