This series seems really hard to review patch by patch, in this case
because I would have to know whether you intended job_next() to be
called with the lock held or not. Nothing in job.h indicates either way
at this point in the series.

Patch 11 answers this by actually renaming it job_next_locked(), but
always having to refer to the final state after the whole series is
applied is really not how things should work. We're splitting the work
into individual patches so that the state after each single patch makes
sense on its own. Otherwise the whole series could as well be a single
patch. :-(

So I'd argue that patch 11 should probably come before this one.

Anyway, I guess I'll try to make my way to the end of the series quickly
and then somehow try to verify whatever the state is then.
