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,

We were resetting nb->data every time we tried a new server, but we need to do
it every time we try for a different record, otherwise we don't end up falling
back to the A record properly. Thanks,

The EFI spec indicates that get_status() should return the address of the buffer
we passed into transmit to indicate the the buffer was transmitted. However we
have boxes where the firmware returns some arbitrary address instead, which
makes grub think that we've not sent anything. So since we have the SNP stuff
opened in exclusive mode just assume any non-NULL txbuf means that our transmit
occurred properly. This makes grub able to do its networking stuff properly on
our broken firmware. Thanks,
