Charles-François Natali added the comment:

Note that no matter where the atfork-hook is executed (prepare,
parent, child), it will still be deadlock-prone in case of
double-fork, since the hook will effectively be called after the first
fork (and before the second one). And double-fork is common, e.g. when
creating daemon processes.
