In this case, please merge this patch into the next patch which
actually uses the factored out function unless that changes
too much.
In hindsight, this patch actually just refactors the code so that the
helper can be re-used subsequently. Using the helper constitutes a
separate unrelated change, so I'm keeping this patch as is. I am
updating the description to convey this better.

In this case, please merge this patch into the next patch which
actually uses the factored out function unless that changes
too much.
