--- Comment #2 from Eric Sandeen <sandeen at redhat.com> ---
Freeing it when the module is unloaded should be sufficient.

In normal use, unmounting a filesystem creates a hole in the table, which the
next mount can fill.

If you mount a lot of unique UUID filesystems without unmounting any in
between, the table will grow accordingly, and unmounting won't shrink it - i.e.
the table only grows as the number of concurrently mounted filesystem grows,
but that doesn't seem like a particularly critical problem to fix.
