This is fine for now as it protects us against doing something stupid in
a mechanical fashion, but I still wonder under which case we are
"starting" the FIS or CLB engines without getting a valid address. (The
unmap should only be happening when we /stop/ the engines, which implies
they were started -- which points to a bug somewhere else, too.)

Do you have a reproducer for the original issue?
