[SECURITY PATCH 019/117] net/tftp: Fix dangling memory pointer

[Daniel Kiper]

From: Darren Kenny <darren.kenny@oracle.com>

The static code analysis tool, Parfait, reported that the valid of
file->data was left referencing memory that was freed by the call to
grub_free(data) where data was initialized from file->data.

To ensure that there is no unintentional access to this memory
referenced by file->data we should set the pointer to NULL.
