There should be no need to remove them.

I set up a RPi3 to try and repro this and have so far managed to trigger
it once using Peter Holm's stress2 suite, so I'll keep investigating.  I
hadn't configured a dump device, but I was able to confirm from DDB that
PCPU_GET(curpmap) == &vmspace0->vm_pmap.

For future reference,
https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug.html
has some info on configuring a dump device.  For the RPi I'm just using
a USB stick as the dump device.
