Uhh, this patch doesn't introduce any kind of virtualization yet. When that happens, _this_ code will remain the same (it wants the real pid), but *other* code will switch to use task_vpid(current) instead. This is an extremely literal translation of current->pid to task_pid(current), both of which do exactly the same thing.

There is no way to make Linux robust with unreliable memory subsystems, sorry. It would be like trying to make a human more robust with an unreliable O2 supply. Memory just has to work.
