[PATCH 1/7] modules: Refactor within_module_core() and within_module_init()

within_module_core() and within_module_init() are doing the exact same
test, one on core_layout, the second on init_layout.

In preparation of increasing the complexity of that verification,
refactor it into a single function called within_module_layout().
