I do not think you need this helper (at least in your purpose).

You will use this helper in the 4/7 patch.
Then, you will immediately revert it in the 5/7 patch.

If you look at the final result, you did not need to add
mod_basename() in the first place.
(There is just one call site, which does not save any
duplicated code).

I suggest adding verify_module_namespace() in the 4/7 patch
instead of using the helper.


BTW, I think this helper is useful for cleaning up the current code,
but you are not even aware that this common pattern appears multiple times.
