Malbec is behaving better now

aaand it's behaving worse again :( - assigning to santi
-> https://openqa.suse.de/tests/1439647

I count 9 failures within 30.000 jobs (not all on ppc64 obviously) - so while it's noticable that the latest build shows a much higher chance, I don't think it's Urgent. We can take down malbec, but then you're without power hardware to test at all :(

In the most recent build we also see this now on QA-Power8-4-kvm: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/1628335
I'll try to monitor this more closely to see if it is still as rare as coolo described it.

We have a valid workaround in place making ppc64le just as stable as other architectures, the real fix would be done as part of https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1041747
