More sharing more good. But I don't think we can lift a 'within'
function to the global namespace, that's just asking for pain.

Urgh, how about?

	for_each_mod_mem_type(type) {
		if (!mod_mem_type_is_init(type) && within(addr, mod, type))
			return true;
	}
	return false;

Then you have have a bunch of mod_mem_type_id_foo() filter functions
that are non-contiguous without having to endlessly repeat stuff
manually.
