'correlate' means that the relationship exists in both directions. We 
could describe an address as "belonging to" a VA->PA mapping, or we 
could say that an address "posseses" such a mapping. Maybe you have a 
strong opinion on why one is incorrect.

Since 'correlate' is not established terminology, and needlessly 
confusing, I can simplify it to:

"The value of va must belong to an active mapping in..."

If you have a different suggestion, let me know.

Sure, this is more accurate.
