No.
That said, MatMFFDAddNullSpace() does exist. This is because due to
round-off in the differencing the null space may be introduced where it
doesn't belong.

When the null space is removed is really a property of the KSP
method
not the PC. You can't just say "everytime you apply the PC you remove
the
null space". It might be possible to force the null space down to the
PC but
I don't think it is the right place for it.
