This will affect all calls to these functions and is hence sure to cause
some breakage somewhere.  You want something more like:

    (defun modi/region-or-whole-advice (&rest _)
      (interactive
       (if (use-region-p)
           (list (region-beginning) (region-end))
        (list (point-min) (point-max))))
      nil)
    (dolist (fn modi/region-or-whole-fns)
      (advice-add fn :before #'modi/region-or-whole-advice))

So you only modify the interactive spec (i.e. change the *command*'s
behavior) without changing the *function*'s behavior.
