    looks ok to me, I think no on one expects to create /dev/pf0, /dev/pf1 ...
    Would it also make sense to update MAKEDEV(8) too. It currently
    reads as:

     Special purpose devices
     apm         Power Management Interface, see apm(4).
     audio*      Audio devices, see audio(4).
     bio         ioctl tunnel pseudo-device, see bio(4).
     ...
     pctr*       PC Performance Tuning Register access device, see pctr(4).
     pf*         Packet Filter, see pf(4).
     pppx*       PPP Multiplexer, see pppx(4).
