oom: Restore vm.oom_relaxation sysctl
'Berserker mode' is used if the OOM killer has to act too often: if
several tasks are killed within 'oom_relaxation' interval, additional tasks
will be killed.
In VZ7, 'vm.oom_relaxation' sysctl defined that value, but it is missing
in VZ8. Restore it, because the default value (1000 jiffies, 1 sec)
might be too small, for example, for slow or highly loaded machines.
Done in the scope of https://jira.sw.ru/browse/PSBM-131983.
Fixes: 8132f6df9b22 "oom: resurrect berserker mode"
Feature: oom: berserker mode
