This is somewhat related to bug 35943. I see this sort of thing regularly:
14:45 <jackmcbarn> why is jenkins-bot failing my commit for stuff i didn't touch?

The meaning of '(non-voting)' is not very obvious, I think. We ask human reviewers to be explicit in identifying their grounds for -1 patches; I don't see why Jenkins-bot couldn't be held to the same standard :)
IMHO, just exclude non-voting tests from Jenkins's comments. Do people actually look at them?
