There are a couple other places which return 'submodule' when it is
known to be NULL. One could rightly expect that they deserve the same
treatment, otherwise, the code becomes more confusing since it's not
obvious why 'return NULL' is used some places but not others.

Earlier in the function, there's effectively a clone of this logic to
which you could apply the same transformation. Changing it here, while
ignoring the clone, makes the code more confusing (or at least
inconsistent) rather than less.
