bug#15957: 24.3.50; Follow mode scrolling broken on Emacs trunk

From what you found out so far I suppose that these changes

  * window.c (window_scroll_pixel_based)

  (window_scroll_line_based): Do not reset last_modified and

  last_overlay_modified counters.

are responsible.  Could you try to resetting window_end_valid in
window_scroll like

=== modified file 'src/window.c'

   else
     window_scroll_line_based (window, n, whole, noerror);

+  XWINDOW (window)->window_end_valid = 0;
   immediate_quit = 0;
 }

and see what happens?
