I attempted a git bisect.

I'm new to this so I may not be correct. This it the patch that introduced
this behaviour for me.

Fix scoll increment for non-smooth scrolling (#46617)
Introduced in 2603ad69b997c999404ecc441e0d64ea2cc22018. Previously, the
delta was incremented by (actual delta/scroll dist), button clicks where
then sent while (delta-- >= 1).
After 2603ad69b997c999404ecc441e0d64ea2cc22018, the delta was
incremented by
the delta only, scroll dist was used as increment in the smooth
scrolling
information. On non-smooth-scrolling servers, the driver would now send
too many events. Restore the old behaviour by dividing by the scroll
distance before entering the button click loop.
