Ah-HA! A question I can answer :-).

You need to map something because otherwise the program itself
might have code to map something of its own and unless you reserve
the protected space, it might wind up becoming unprotected.

I also see a new 4.7.3 kernel showed up in the repos. I wonder
if the problem goes away with it?

Nope, and the issue is being reported by others, too. Not just me.
