** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
  Animations stutter constantly on Nvidia in GNOME 40.
  
  We're missing:
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1826
  
  [Test Plan]
  
  1. Run glxgears and maximize it.
  2. Watch closely.
  Expect consistently smooth animation.
  
  [Where problems could occur]
  
  Since the fix touches on frame scheduling it could (and should) affect
  the smoothness of the entire screen. Although it is designed to only
  affect drivers that have `frame_clock->last_presentation_time_us == 0`,
  so that's the Nvidia proprietary driver and maybe some virtual machine
  configurations.
  
  [Other Info]
  
- The upstream fix mutter!1826 is currently only in mutter 41, not in the
- mutter 40 branch yet.
+ The upstream fix mutter!1826 is mutter 41.0 onward, and now in 40.6
+ onward. So we can drop the patch as soon as 40.6 is ready.
