You could use pmap_extract() with the proc's pmap structure and the 
virtual address, but that will only work if the pmap has actually been 
loaded with the mapping (it is done lazily).

Also note that unless the region is wired, the PA can change over time 
if the underlying page is reclaimed.

What is it that you're trying to do, exactly?
