I see it being used pretty much exclusively in embedded systems, and it looks like some of them set p_paddr to an address but leave p_vaddr to 0. So, it's only seeming use is to indicate when virtual memory is not expected to be used, but otherwise it's function is identical to p_vaddr. "Put the segment in memory here, please."
