[LTP] [PATCH 1/1] nfslock01.sh: Don't test on NFS v3 on TCP

Hi,

> Subject: [LTP] [PATCH 1/1] nfslock01.sh: Don't test on NFS v3 on TCP

Obviously, the subject should not contain "on TCP" (first, I removed only TCP
entries in runtest file, but because I expect it would be problematic also on
UDP). Also tst_brk TCONF does not check TCP/UDP either (only NFS v3).

I'll update that before merge (don't send new version).

Kind regards,
Petr
