I know there's a bug where when downsizing by multiple mons at once through cephadm this ghost stray mon daemon thing can end up happening (I think something about cephadm removing them too quickly in succession, not totally sure). In those cases, just doing a mgr failover ("ceph mgr fail") always cleared the warnings after a couple minutes. That might be worth a try if you haven't done so already and you have at least two mgr daemons in the cluster.
