I don't think you can do much simpler than the patch I sent and it lets
users inhibit the mode in those mode where they don't want it with:

    (add-hook 'foo-mode-hook
              (lambda () (setq-local auto-save-visited-mode nil)))

and it's "compatible" with a future addition of an actual minor mode.
As mentioned, having such "redundant checks" is common practice for
minor modes.
