The first hunk is right except it does not fix doble m_freem() because
m_freem() accepts NULL. However, `pm' leaks. I would prefer "goto rele"
instead of "rele_wake and return", but feel free to commit as is.

               if ((m0 = veb_offload(ifp, ifp0, m0)) == NULL)
                        goto rele;
               /* ... */
        }
rele:
        refcnt_rele_wake(&pm->m_refs);
done:
        m_freem(m0);

m_freem() accepts NULL, I see no problems here:

        if ((m = veb_offload(ifp, ifp0, m)) == NULL)
                goto drop;

        (*tp->p_enqueue)(ifp0, m); /* XXX count error */

        return (NULL);
drop:
        m_freem(m);
        return (NULL);
}
