I believe the idea here is that projects can choose the list of jobs that will 
run to verify a patch, which means:

- Some projects that do not have or do not want to run csit on patches can set 
the list to EMPTY (default state).
- In case of issues as you mention, committers of a project can temporary set 
the list of csit jobs to EMPTY.

With the above I think the process is flexible enough to accommodate most or 
all projects needs.
