not a security fix
confidence 0.1
signal score 6.47
Source/WebCore/css
Classified as not security-relevant.
Triage note: Adds lvalue/const-ref/rvalue overloads of uncheckedDowncast/downcast/dynamicDowncast on Ref and RefPtr and mechanically updates hundreds of call sites (downcast<X>(ptr)->foo() -> downcast<X>(ptr).foo()); companion refactor to 277305bef9b0, no bug fixed.
