** Description changed:

  [ Impact ]
  
  When using software rendering on Xorg (so usually just in VMs), some
  parts of app windows may fail to redraw.
  
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/2880
  
  [ Test Plan ]
  
- TODO: Figure out a minimal test plan that doesn't require modifying
- code.
+ 1. Set up a virtual machine without graphics acceleration.
+ 2. Log into 'Ubuntu on Xorg'.
+ 3. Open Settings > About and verify Graphics = llvmpipe and Windowing System 
= X11.
+ 4. TODO
  
  [ Where problems could occur ]
  
  The fix adds a new synchronization point between the compositor and X
  server. This should be inconsequential, although there is a "sync ring"
  in mutter used for this, and if a mistake occurs there then other parts
  of the desktop could appear to stop responding in Xorg sessions.
  
  [ Other Info ]
  
  This is a regression that started in 3.37.3 via 551101c65cda.
