Got it. Here's the updated patch (I think I did it correctly?).

Subject: [PATCH] ob-core: add org-confirm-babel-evaluate-cell custom variable
* lisp/ob-core.el (org-confirm-babel-evaluate-cell): Added to control
execution of cells separate from execution of src blocks, it works in
exactly the same way as org-confirm-babel-evaluate.
* lisp/ob-core.el (org-babel-read): org-confirm-babel-evaluate-cell is
now used to check cells independent of org-confirm-babel-evaluate.
Following the change in 10e857d42859a55b23cd4206ffce3ebd0f678583 it
became extremely annoying to tangle files that make extensive use of
elisp expression in src block #+header: statements.
This commit resolves the issue by making it possible to ignore checks
on cells (the old behavior) without compromising general security for
running src blocks.
This is necessary because there is no easy way to hop swap
org-confirm-babel-evaluate between org-get-src-block-info where
org-babel-read is called and the execution of that src block. It could
probably be done using advice around org-babel-read, but that is a
level of hackery that should be avoided.
