Svace found a similar case but it is no longer relevant:

NULL constant:
    mpi_ec_mul_point()
      ec_mulm(z3, point->z, z2, ctx)
        ec_mod()
          mpi_mod()
            mpi_fdiv_r()
              mpi_tdiv_r()
                mpi_tdiv_qr()
                  mpi_resize()
                    kcalloc()

Dereference:
    mpi_ec_mul_point()
      ec_invm(z3, z3, ctx)
        mpi_invm()
          mpi_cmp_ui()
            mpi_normalize()
