postgres version 12
I have very simple update query, like this:

update my_table 
set 
col = NULL
where
col IS NOT NULL;

my_table contains few million rows, col is indexed column

Fastest way would be   alter table, drop column and then add column again, but I can't do this just because on this column   depends bunch of views and materialized views.

No much hope, but still asking, Is there some another way to just reset column all values? ( with NULL in my case)
