Subject: [RFC PATCH] coccinelle: fix parallel build with CHECK=scripts/coccicheck

If I run the following:

  $ make -j8 C=1 CHECK=scripts/coccicheck

lots of "coccicheck failed" messages are displayed.

I do not know the coccinell internals, but I guess --jobs does not
work well if spatch is invoked from Make running in parallel.
Disable --jobs in this case.
