This conditional is not needed; module_name dies when it cannot find the
name for the path, as it should.

If the defaulting to the path itself were a good idea (which I do not
think it is), that should be done in module_name so that other callers
that tried to find the name for a given path that does not have a named
module would get a consistent result.
