Won't this mean the traps (if there are any) won't be recognized at all

What do you mean by recognized? This new region will only be accessed to
write instruction. The only potential fault on that region is a data abort.
Exactly the data abort.
My recollection is that the data abort would print a stack trace. And
the stack trace needs symbol information - which it gets from virtual_region.
But if virtual_region is not registered then the stack won't contain the
name of the function that had an data abort as the patching is done.
I am not sure to understand what you mean by "the name of the function
that had a data abort". Could you give a bit more detail?
Cheers,
