If not done, a reference to a freed pipe remains in the watch_queue, as this function is called before freeing a pipe in free_pipe_info() (see line 834 of fs/pipe.c). The sole use of wqueue->defunct is for checking if the watch queue has been cleared, but wqueue->pipe is also NULLed while clearing. Thus, wqueue->defunct is superfluous, as wqueue->pipe can be checked for NULL. Hence, the former can be removed.
