When executing TFTP, the ARP will be replied to after receiving
the ARP. U-boot's ARP routine modifies the data in the receive
packet in response to the ARP packet and then copies it
into the transmit packet.
At this point, the received packet cache is inconsistent.
It is possible that the cache will perform a writeback action to
affect the MAC receiving packets.
Avoid the same problem that occurs in other networking protocols.
In the free_pkt function, ensure cache and memory consistency.
