I meant two separate workflows for each JDK i.e.
Workflow1: Build against jdk1.7, and optionally run UTs and Dtests against
1.7
Workflow2: Build against jdk1.8, and run UTs and DTests against 1.8.

If we find breakages in workflow1, and not in workflow 2, how would they be
false positives? we will need to then look into whats causing breakages
with 1.7, isn't it?
