x86 removed -pipe in commit 437e88ab8f9e2 ("x86/build: Remove -pipe from KBUILD_CFLAGS") and the newer arm64 and riscv seem to have never used it, so that seems to be the way the world's going.
Compile performance building defconfig on a POWER10 PowerNV system was in the noise after 10 builds each. No point in adding options unless they help something, so remove it.
