While adding tcp window scaling support I was finding that I'd get some packet
loss or reordering when transferring from large distances and grub would just
timeout. This is because we weren't ack'ing when we got our OOO packet, so the
sender didn't know it needed to retransmit anything, so eventually it would fill
the window and stop transmitting, and we'd time out. Fix this by ACK'ing when
we don't find our next sequence numbered packet. With this fix I no longer time
out. Thanks,

Using the http module to download config files, produces memory errors,
after the config file is downloaded.
The error was traced to the tcp stack in grub-core/net/tcp.c. The wrong
netbuff pointer was being freed in the clean up loop.
Changing the code to free the correct netbuff pointer removes the runtime
error.
