This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves
the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the
results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-
vivid' to 'verification-done-vivid'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Bug description:
  As you see in the history in https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/job/vivid-
  adt-upstart/?, upstart's test fail almost all the time, on

  ok 53 - with single line command writing fast and exiting
  not ok 54 - with single line command writing lots of data fast and exiting
   wrong value for bytes, expected 3145728 got 3018027
   at tests/test_job_process.c:3886 (test_start).

  FAIL: test_job_process

  Sometimes they succeed on one architecture, and with lots of luck on
  both, but this is way too flaky to be an useful test. This keeps
  blocking the propagation of other packages from -proposed.

  This was most likely triggered by the kernel update from 3.18 to 3.19.
