Comment (by gacar):

 Checking the relevant Mozilla bug
 [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=943668 #943668] and
 [https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-aurora/rev/5b7edf143247 landed FF
 patch], it seems
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/torbrowser.git/blob/HEAD:/src/current-
 patches/firefox/0021-Do-not-expose-physical-screen-info.-via-window-
 and-w.patch existing TBB patch #0021] is still ok but needs to be updated
 for ESR31 to cover this new method: [https://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-
 esr31/source/dom/base/nsGlobalWindow.cpp#4991 nsGlobalWindow::GetScreenXY]

 For the device/CSS pixel difference, TBB bluntly returns 0 from the
 methods changed in the Firefox's patch (`GetScreenX, GetScreenY`). So I
 guess it should be ok.
