Now that we always add to the tail, we can remove this field. The other use of distribute_running is in the slack_timer, so that we don't start a distribution while one is already running. However, even in the event that this race occurs, it is fine to have two distributions running (especially now that distribute grabs the cfs_b->lock to determine remaining quota before assigning).
