[PATCH 0/1] net: wget: fix TCP sequence number wrap around issue

Hi,

I send a patch fixing the wget issue.
There is a wrap around issue as already mentioned in [1].

The log in [2] indicates the following packets.

- Success packet
Packets received 64368, Transfer Successful
Bytes transferred = 93198937 (58e1a59 hex)

- Failed packet
Packets received 64368, Transfer Successful
Bytes transferred = 26984682 (19bc0ea hex)

"Bytes transferred" are different, but "Packets received" are same.
First one output by net_boot_file_size that is assigned at store_block().
Second one output by packets that is incremented at wget_handler().
Those differences are caused by the following line.
If tcp_seq_num is wrap around, store_block() isn't called.

```
static void wget_handler(uchar *pkt, u16 dport,
...
                if (tcp_seq_num >= initial_data_seq_num &&
                    store_block(pkt, tcp_seq_num - initial_data_seq_num,
                                len) != 0) {
                        wget_fail("wget: store error\n",
                                  tcp_seq_num, tcp_ack_num, action);
                        net_set_state(NETLOOP_FAIL);
                        return;
                }
```

I reproduced the issue and fixed it with the following patch.
Please check this patch.
I will recommend to apply patch in [3] with this patch,
if packets may drop.
