It is a good practice to add the oops here
Will this really be helpful? I think it'll be more clutter (the backtrace on
metag arch is not great):
It's better in general to leave it out unless it's adding something (for
example sometimes the particular call path is important) and even there
edit it down to relevant details - the splat from the full oops normally
overwhelms the commit message.

I think the commit message explains what's going. So unless Vinod insists I'll send v3 with the other 2 requested fixes.

Thanks for the review!
