That you did a zfs send does not prevent you from rolling back to a
previous snapshot.  Similarly for zfs recv -- that you went from one
snapshot to another by zfs receiving a send does not stop you from
rolling back to an earlier snapshot.

You do need to have an earlier snapshot to rollback to, if you want to
rollback.

Also, if you are using zfs send for backups, or for replication, and you
rollback the primary dataset, then you'll need to update your backups/
replicas accordingly.
