[Devel] [PATCH RH8 1/2] oom: Restore vm.oom_relaxation sysctl

[Evgenii Shatokhin]

'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.
