Commit 1bbcc224 ("http: refactor options to http_get_*", 28-09-2013) changed the type of final 'options' argument of the http_get_file() function from an int to an 'struct http_get_options' pointer. However, it neglected to update the (single) call site. Since this call was passing '0' to that argument, it was (correctly) being interpreted as a null pointer. Change to argument to NULL.

Noticed by sparse. ("Using plain integer as NULL pointer")

Hi Jonathan, Junio,

I'm a little puzzled by not having noticed this until this evening! ;-) Also, I note that maint@kernel.org != maint@repo.or.cz/jrn

ATB, Ramsay Jones

Thanks, patch is obviously correct (and the cause was just oversight on my part).
