The test relies on 'nc' being the netcat version from the nmap project.
While this seems to be the case on Fedora, it is not the case on Ubuntu,
resulting in failures such as [1].
Fix by explicitly using the 'ncat' utility from the nmap project and the
skip the test in case it is not installed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
