>Description:
When you load snp as module, create snp0 node in /dev, start
watch on some tty, kill it, unload the module and then list /dev
you get page fault.
>How-To-Repeat:
kldload snp; (cd /dev;sh MAKEDEV snp0); watch ttyv0
On second terminal: killall -9 watch; kldunload snp; ls -l /dev/snp*
Boom.
>Fix:
Not known, but probably cleaning up would be good idea.
