Runtimes tend to fluctuate quite a bit more on Travis CI compared to
my machine, but not this much, and it seems to be consistent so far.
After scripting/querying the Travis CI API a bit, I found that from
the last 100 static analysis build jobs 78 did actully run 'make
coccicheck' [1], avaraging 470s for the whole build job, with only 4
build job exceeding the 10min mark.
I had maybe 6-8 build jobs running this patch over the last 2-3 days,
I think all of them were over 15min. (I restarted some of them, so I
don't have separate logs for all of them, hence the uncertainty.)
1 - There are a couple of canceled build jobs, and we skip the build
job of branches when they happen to match a tags.
