Ok, someone needs to double check me on this before merging anything, but 
don't we want to allocate sizeof(struct ib_mad_snoop_private) here, rather 
than just the size of a pointer to the struct?

new_snoop_table is declared as:

struct ib_mad_snoop_private **new_snoop_table;

It should point to an array of pointers.

Ok. Thank you for that reply.
