I tested Ross' patch for this and unfortunate it caused a new problem
to appear.

I accidentally triggered two a-full builds at once, there was also a
scarthgap build running at the time.

The patch from Ross caused all the do_package_qa tasks to rerun at once
in parallel which caused writes to the hash equivalence server. This
caused widespread timeout errors and took out all the builds including
the scarthgap one in parallel.

https://valkyrie.yoctoproject.org/#/builders/4/builds/257
https://valkyrie.yoctoproject.org/#/builders/2/builds/253
https://valkyrie.yoctoproject.org/#/builders/89/builds/236/steps/16/logs/stdio
https://valkyrie.yoctoproject.org/#/builders/40/builds/242/steps/11/logs/stdio

and many more.

Joshua: Is there a performance issue with many writes in parallel to
hashequiv?

The stats info off the server was:

    "requests": {
        "average": 0.042532518429623176,
        "max_time": 3.0534732329833787,
        "num": 73325629,

        "total_time": 3118723.6668062117
    }

Cheers,
