Unfortunately I just got a report that 5.10.15 + the 3 extra fixes mentioned
above is still causing issues for one user with a
"thinkpad x230 with i5-3320M (HD Graphics 4000)"

The user descibes the problem as: "still have some minor black squares popping
up while scrolling on Firefox."

I've asked this user to test 5.10.14 + the 3 reverts mentioned earlier in the
thread and that kernel does not have this issue.

Chris, any ideas / more fixes to cherry pick for testing ?

Regards,

Hans
