Exactly, it is also mentioned in the wake_q.h header:

 * The DEFINE_WAKE_Q macro declares and initializes the list head.
 * wake_up_q() does NOT reinitialize the list; it's expected to be
 * called near the end of a function. Otherwise, the list can be
 * re-initialized for later re-use by wake_q_init().
