Hi Fan,

Looks this patch will cause the null pointer dereference issue, see below 
analysis:

With this patch, the NET_BUF will be freed and the corresponding Arg (Packet) 
will also be freed in DhcpReleasePacket.

        Wrap      = NetbufFromExt (&Frag, 1, 0, 0, DhcpReleasePacket, Packet);

That's incorrect since the Packet will be retransmit later.

Please take a look.

Thanks,
Jiaxin
