Assuming that is the problem, once I clean the mushroom (removing the

don't need to order a replacement)?

There's been lots of discussion about why the'd chrome a part it's just going to fall off of with no good answers. It's a common issue on E61 machines.

Would this flaking of the chrome plating have been provoked by the
descaling process?  Or have I recently been unknowingly adding bits of
chrome to my shots?

Maybe to the first. It's unlikely the chrome flakes make it through the coffee into your cup and I doubt chrome is a health issue.
