The commit message lacks structure in explaining what the
problem/missing functionality is and why this is solved the way it is,
with stack tokens. Here's a good example how to structure it properly:

https://git.kernel.org/tip/323950a8a98b492ac2fa168e8e4c0becfb4554dd

Also, this patch does a couple of things at once and it needs splitting
for easier review.

Thx.
