Tom 54eeb8ee9a AK: Fix a race condition with WeakPtr<T>::strong_ref and destruction
Since RefPtr<T> decrements the ref counter to 0 and after that starts
destructing the object, there is a window where the ref count is 0
and the weak references have not been revoked.

Also change WeakLink to be able to obtain a strong reference
concurrently and block revoking instead, which should happen a lot
less often.

Fixes a problem observed in #4621

SerenityOS

Graphical Unix-like operating system for x86 computers.

Build status Fuzzing Status

About

SerenityOS is a love letter to '90s user interfaces with a custom Unix-like core. It flatters with sincerity by stealing beautiful ideas from various other systems.

Roughly speaking, the goal is a marriage between the aesthetic of late-1990s productivity software and the power-user accessibility of late-2000s *nix. This is a system by us, for us, based on the things we like.

I (Andreas) regularly post raw hacking sessions and demos on my YouTube channel.

Sometimes I write about the system on my github.io blog.

I'm also on Patreon and GitHub Sponsors if you would like to show some support that way.
