Use current! instead of bindings::get_current() in Task::pid_in_current_ns

[y86-dev]

The function Task::pid_in_current_ns in rust/kernel/task.rs uses bindings::get_current(). But there exists a safe abstraction for the raw binding: the current! macro. Change the implementation to use that abstraction instead.

You might also have to add a function on Task to get access to the raw C pointer.

I'm not finding the function Task::pid_in_current_ns in rust/kernel/task.rs.

I see the use of bindings::get_current() in current() is this where we want to use the safe macro instead? @y86-dev

EDIT: I see now, it's in the rust-dev branch.

You might also have to add a function on Task to get access to the raw C pointer.

What's the reason I would or would not have to add a function to grab the raw C pointer? Any further detail on this would be appreciated, thanks.
