> We sometimes see multiple check-patch jobs still running while actually the patch for them was already merged. 
> This happens when Jenkins queue is too big and the committer merge the patch before the job in CI finish or even starts.
> In the case where the job didn't even start because of long queue, there is not reason to continue running the job if the patch was merged. 
> Any post merge logic will be run in check-merged stage and there is no value in adding info on the check-patch to the merged commit.
> It should be easy to check in the beginning of the check-patch job and part of standard CI if the patch that is triggered the job is still open and the job should continue.
> If the patch is merged, then we should abort the job and thus cleaning the queue from check-patch jobs that won't have any value .
