// Likewise, we want to ensure that the host filesystem has nft >= 1.0.1, so that
// it's not possible that *our* rules break *the system's* nft. (In particular, we
// know that if kube-proxy uses nft >= 1.0.3 and the system has nft <= 0.9.8, that
// the system nft will become completely unusable.) Unfortunately, we can't easily
// figure out the version of nft installed on the host filesystem, so instead, we
// check the kernel version, under the assumption that the distro will have an nft
// binary that supports the same features as its kernel does, and so kernel 5.13
// or later implies nft 1.0.1 or later. https://issues.k8s.io/122743
