Buildbot worker balancing between master and 22.03 ?

[Thibaut]

Hi,

There is ongoing work to address these points for phase1 at least, see https://gitlab.com/openwrt/buildbot/-/commits/phase1-monomaster

Furthermore with the level of CI that is now being applied, a case could be made that we do not need to continuously build master as is currently done.

Cheers
