The listing of jobs is serialized for the console log by jenkins. The
child jobs themselves are already triggered in parallel. The console
log does not make this obvious, but if you watch the live jenkins jobs
queues, you'll see all of the ${project}-${series}-${arch}-ci jobs
running. Hope this answers your question.
