Neither of Lukas's panics suggests that PADDR1/PMAP1 is being used.  The
faulting virtual addresses are

fault virtual address   = 0xbfca1974

and

fault virtual address   = 0xbfcadf10

which are within the PTmap, not PADDR1.  In other words,
pmap_pte_quick() concluded that the given pmap was currently active and
therefore the pte was accessible through the mapping that each address
space has to its own page table.
