Deprecate it for future removal. However, I do not expect any application is affected by this. The other form of calling it, PKey::EC::Point#mul(bn [, bn]) remains untouched. PKey::EC::Point#mul calls EC_POINTs_mul(3) when multiple BNs are given as an array. LibreSSL 2.8.0 released on 2018-08 removed the feature and OpenSSL 3.0 which is planned to be released in 2020 will also deprecate the function as there is no real use-case.
