commit 23da9588037e ("fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c: fix NULL pointer dereference in put_links") forgot to handle start_unregistering() case, while header->parent is NULL, it calls erase_header() and as seen in the above syzkaller call trace, accessing &header->parent->root will trigger a NULL pointer dereference.
As that commit explained, there is also no need to call start_unregistering() if header->parent is NULL.
