Also verified fixed in mantic using version 45.2-0ubuntu2~really45.0 and
the test case that's now in the Bug Description above.

** Description changed:

  [ Impact ]
  
  There is heavy stuttering visible in Firefox with mutter 45.1/45.2 when
  kinetic scrolling a non-animated web page with a touchpad. This is a
  regression introduced upstream in mutter 45.1 (8f27ebf8).
  
  [ Test Plan ]
  
  0. Find a laptop with a touchpad.
  1. Open a simple web page like a Wikipedia page in Firefox.
  2. Use two fingers on the touchpad to fling it so it continues scrolling.
  
  Expect: The scrolling proceeds and slows perfectly smoothly.
  
  [ Where problems could occur ]
  
  Anywhere in frame scheduling (visual smoothness), since that is the code
  affected.
  
  [ Other Info ]
  
- Since the bug only hurts the triple buffering patch, that's where it has
- been fixed upstream:
+ The bug was introduced upstream in 45.1 by
+ 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/commit/8f27ebf87eee6057992a90560d4118ab7bdf138d
+ but since it only hurts the triple buffering patch, that's where it has
+ been fixed:
  
  
https://gitlab.gnome.org/Community/Ubuntu/mutter/-/commit/0b896518b2028d9c4d6ea44806d093fd33793689
  
https://gitlab.gnome.org/Community/Ubuntu/mutter/-/commits/triple-buffering-v4-45
  
  [ Workaround ]
  
  In /etc/environment:
  
    MUTTER_DEBUG_TRIPLE_BUFFERING=always
  
  or "never" also works. Just not "auto".
