Additional reproduction detail after changing the primary monitor:

Original setup was Dell AW3420DW on DP-3 at 3440x1440@120Hz as primary,
with LG ULTRAGEAR on HDMI-1 at [email protected] as secondary. In that
setup, GNOME Shell overlay/compositor UI reliably triggered the visible
flicker/ghosting, especially Settings > Displays > Identify Screens, the
top-bar date/time menu, polkit/auth prompts, notifications, and
window/titlebar dragging.

Test performed: changed the primary display to the LG while leaving the
same two monitors connected and both still around 120Hz. No GRUB/kernel
parameters, cables, or GNOME experimental features were changed for this
test.

Result: Settings > Displays > Identify Screens, which had previously
triggered the issue consistently, did not trigger the flicker during
this test with the LG as primary.

This makes the issue look less like a failing panel and more like
something in the GNOME Shell/Mutter overlay/compositor path for the
primary monitor, interacting with Intel i915/GBM and this dual high-
refresh monitor setup. The earlier gbm_surface_lock_front_buffer /
buffer age errors are still the main relevant user-session logs from the
failure case.
