Log:
  MFC r224536:
  Confirmed behavior of a Cisco 6509 in production.
  
  In the old TFTP server, there was an undocumented behavior where
  the block counter would rollover to 0 if a file larger
  than 65535 blocks was transferred.  With the default block size
  of 512 octets per block, this is a file size of approximately 32 megabytes.
  
  The new TFTP server code would report an error and stop transferring
  the file if a file was larger than 65535 blocks.
  
  This patch restores the old TFTP server's behavior to the new
  TFTP server code.  If a TFTP client transfers a file larger
  than 65535 blocks, and does *not* specify the "rollover" option,
  then automatically rollover the block counter to 0 every time
  we reach 65535 blocks.
  
  This restores interoperability with the FreeBSD 6 TFTP client.
  Without this change, if a FreeBSD 6 TFTP client tried to
  retrieve a file larger than 65535 blocks from a FreeBSD 9 TFTP server,
  the transfer would fail.  The same file could be retrieved successfully
  if the same FreeBSD 6 TFTP client was used against a FreeBSD 6 TFTP server.
