I don't think a reboot is always necessary , for some hot plugable hardware 
running:

devfsadm should be enough

devfsadm(1M) maintains the /dev namespace. It  replaces  the
     previous  suite  of  devfs  administration  tools  including
     drvconfig(1M),     disks(1M),     tapes(1M),      ports(1M),
     audlinks(1M), and devlinks(1M).

     The default operation is to attempt to load every driver  in
     the  system  and  attach  to  all possible device instances.
     Next, devfsadm creates logical links to device nodes in /dev
     and /devices and loads the device policy.
