Actually, this is more annoying than I'd thought. There's a whole bunch of places where mbufs can change during processing in ath(4) and yeah, we can't guarantee the original mbuf is available.
I wonder how many other drivers are doing this - stuff like m_collapse(), m_defrag(), etc. If this is called then the original mbuf can't be returned upon error. I'm torn as to whether to back out the mbuf API change and have the driver consume it, or whether we want to go through the pain of fixing things. Let's figure this out ASAP.
