Bridge job stuck in pending status when downstream pipeline cannot be run due to "only/except" filters

Summary

Bridge job is stuck in pending status without any explanation (and is not clickable) when downstream pipeline cannot be run due to only/except filters.

Steps to reproduce

Create 2 projects. Set downstream project .gitlab-ci.yml file to:

dummyjob:
  stage: dummystage
  script:
    - echo "Do your build here"
  only:
    - specific_ref

Set upstream project (the one containing bridge job) to:

stages:
  - test
  - deploy

rspec:
  stage: test
  script: echo 'Main job'

staging:
  stage: deploy
  trigger:
    project: path_to_downstream_project

What is the current bug behavior?

Bridge job is stuck in pending status without explanation and is not clickable.

What is the expected correct behavior?

Bridge job is finished with explanation that pipeline in downstream project is not triggered due to ref (or whichever) filter.
