Where is btf_put called?

It is not stored anywhere in patch 2, so a bit confusing. I quickly looked at 
the following patches but also don't see the bpf_put.

It is not clear to me why the subsystem needs to explicitly call 
unregister_bpf_struct_ops(). Can it be done similar to the module kfunc support 
(the kfunc_set_tab goes away with the btf)?

Related to this, does it need to maintain a global struct_ops array for all 
kernel module? Can the struct_ops be maintained under its corresponding module 
btf itself?
