I don't know. I just realised that all the code paths leading to uvm_pagefree() get rid of the pmap references by calling page_protect() except a couple of them in the aiodone daemon and the clustering code in the pager. This can't hurt and make the existing code coherent. Maybe it just hides the bug, I don't know.
