(I am not a reviewer)

The changelog description should probably mention what port it's for.

The comment in WebView.h is probably unnecessary.

LGTM otherwise

theme() actually returns a singleton, so mutating this singleton via
a WebView instance is a bit confusing since it would cause the value
to be changed for all WebView instances.

since this is Linux only, perhaps you should just create a linux specific
header file in public/linux that exposes a static setter for this propery.

Here is another try at this patch.

Note that it doesn't pass check-webkit-style due to unnecessary indentation in WebCore/rendering/RenderThemeChromiumLinux.h, which was preexisting.  I left it as is to minimise noise in the patch.

This should include a bug link here like you did in the other changelog in this patch.

I'll land this and do the fix suggested.
