After applying commit b9b588f22a0c, the internal page chrome://gpu/ in
Google Chrome indicates that GPU acceleration is no longer functional.
I apologize, but as I am not a Google Chrome engineer, I have no idea
how to create more clean reproducer code.
I only noticed as a Web browser user that when I scrolled through
pages with a lot of images, Google Chrome got substantially sluggish.
Hopefully, someone from chromium-dev will read my message and help us.
