Well, CI wasn't down, it's just that there wasn't stable drm-intel-nightly to 
apply patches on. There could be something CI could do when tree is burning, 
and trying patches on *some* old version might not be the best choice, 
especially when patches might try to fix the breakage. Ideas welcome.

I'm halting the Patchwork processing when in above situation. This means that 
the non-tested Patchwork patchsets will be tested when the tree is in 
approximately good condition. Resending doesn't change anything.

My opinion is that as Patchwork is heavily dependent on drm-intel-nightly, 
this is probably how it should go, but automatically, without my intervention.

What kind of status dashboard would be good? As mentioned, CI itself was all 
good and well, and status board would reflect that.

Tomi
