if you look at Cisco NX-OS release notes there is a procedure how to roll-back the code.

Brocade down grades are handled the same way the upgrade is done. That is run the firmwaredownload command and point to the version you want to go to in your FTP server. A word of warning ... there are some versions that do not support a non-disruptive downgrade and care must be taken. Read the Release notes before doing it.
Hope that helps
