Description:

NOTE: I'm running vanilla Arch on this device, NOT SteamOS.

The latest gnome-shell update (43.0) in [testing] dumps core on my Steam Deck
[VLV0100].

This seems to be hardware specific, as my Desktop (Ryzen 7 1700 / Radeon RX
6600) and Laptop (Intel Core i7-1165G7) do not exhibit the same issue.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install the gnome group on a Steam Deck

2. Start gdm (or invoke gnome-shell manually)

Additional Notes:

I did some troubleshooting of my own (rebuilt gnome-shell/mutter against their
most recent upstream commits), and this issue seems to be resolved (mutter
being the culprit). I'll try bisecting the issue over the weekend to figure
out which commit fixes the underlying issue.

"Linux version 6.0.3-arch3-1-clang-lto". Maybe not 100% vanilla...

May bad! I've attached a log with a vanilla kernel! :P

Can confirm using mutter-git fixes the issue on my side too.
