To be clear, do you want this and the accompanying gnome-shell update
uploaded in time for 12.2, or should I upload them after 12.2 for inclusion
in 12.3 as I suggested in the request?

I have been asked to roll one additional change into this update: updating
the (non-upstream) triple-buffering patch to its latest version, which
fixes an issue where some session types (Xorg and some video drivers like
Raspberry Pi) would only refresh at 30fps rather than the intended 60fps,
fixing https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/2017137 and
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/2017097. I have not
tested that change yet, but the equivalent for mutter 44 has been in Ubuntu
since May. After I've tested it in v43 on Debian, would that be OK to
include? The additional diff (beyond what you already saw) will be what's
attached, plus a changelog entry.

Thanks,
