This looks good. I'd say you should commit the change yourself -
feel free to say it's reviewed by me.
As an aside, when I did this to if_tun, I chose to do all the
destroy_dev()s at module unload time (I guess the snp device could do
with a MODULE_DECLARE). This allows the administrator to relax the
driver-chosen permissions on tun devices with something like
kldload if_tun
>/dev/tun0
chmod blah /dev/tun0
The destroy_dev() added to snpclose() prevents this.
Having said all that, it's unlikely that anyone would want to relax
the permissions a snoop device that wasn't already opened, so the
destroy_dev() looks ok here in practice.
