Many Linux users have cited Wayland’s forced vsync as a blocker for gaming related scenarios. This patch adds tearing support into Xwayland!

It’s not a huge amount of latency, so it’s probably not super noticible to people who don’t pay much attention. I’m pretty sensitive to input lag, and it does feel noticeably worse than both X11 without compositing and windows.
It is possible to get decent latency currently, with VRR + mailbox + fps cap, but there is still no VRR support if you use gnome.
