Issue
After upgrading Jenkins to v2.212, and installing many plugin updates available, some Jobs start failing with the following error:
12:43:35 [WS-CLEANUP] Deleting project workspace...
12:43:35 [WS-CLEANUP] Deferred wipeout is used...

Is this an issue with latest Jenkins or with some plug-in?
Observations:
- This issue is NOT observed after downgrading to v2.207
- This issue is NOT seen with v2.211 and v2.210.
Solution
The changelog at https://jenkins.io/changelog/ has added a warning for 2.212 (2020-01-05):
WARNING: This release introduces a critical regression, see JENKINS-60644. Please avoid updating to this version.
