Yes, patchset tries to reduce around 300 bytes of stack usage of zstd compression path. 
We faced high stack usage issue on switching compression algo from LZO/LZ4 to zstd algo.
zstd compression uses around 1200 bytes of stack which is huge as compared 
to LZO/LZ4 which uses negligible stack (< 200 bytes).

OK
