With tftp window size support in the next patches, the first received block might be !=1 (e.g. when it was reordered or dropped). There could be checked whether it is in the first window, but the corresponding sanity check can be dropped completely: - OACK logic verifies that we speak with a tftp server (which always sends block #1 as the first one). Diagnostic will help only with non rfc 2743 servers (which are probably very rare resp. non existing nowadays) - the code some lines later handles this case already Remove the check and simplify things.
