Subject: [PATCH] fs/pipe: Deinitialize the watch_queue when pipe is freed

From: Haimin Zhang <tcs_kernel@...cent.com>

Add a new function call to deinitialize the watch_queue of a freed pipe.
When a pipe node is freed, it doesn't make pipe->watch_queue->pipe null.
Later when function post_one_notification is called, it will use this
field, but it has been freed and watch_queue->pipe is a dangling pointer.
It makes a uaf issue.
