Freeing mbuf is under pfil hook responsibility, if it returns nonzero
value it must call m_freem(). So, it is bug in the ndpacket.c.

https://github.com/AlexandreFenyo/ndproxy/blob/master/ndpacket.c

Also, ip6_output() always consumes mbuf, it is wrong to call m_freem()
after calling ip6_output(), even when it returns error.
