I would be interested in knowing what happens when the existing code is
executed.  In bash-4.2/readline-6.2, rl_getc returns READERR if read(2)
returns -1/errno!=EINTR and readline returns immediately without adding
a newline.  It may be that bash executes a command that does not end in
a newline, but in this case it doesn't seem like the code you modified
should be executed.
