And if you build on 16.04 with this patch applied:

core/test/stubs.c: In function 'cpu_wait_job':
core/test/stubs.c:70:6: error: function might be candidate for
attribute 'const' [-Werror=suggest-attribute=const]
 void cpu_wait_job(struct cpu_job *job, bool free_it)
      ^~~~~~~~~~~~
core/test/stubs.c: In function 'cpu_process_local_jobs':
core/test/stubs.c:77:6: error: function might be candidate for
attribute 'const' [-Werror=suggest-attribute=const]
 void cpu_process_local_jobs(void)
      ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
/build/core/test/Makefile.check:61: recipe for target 'core/test/stubs.o' failed
make: *** [core/test/stubs.o] Error 1


Great stuff!
