Did you try what I proposed?  If that doesn't catch it, I have no
idea.  IIUC mark_discard_killed_buffers just removes entries from that
list, it cannot introduce any nil valued elements.

Well this will just cache the underlying problem.  But I have no good
idea how to investigate this issue any furher, so install if you like.
