#1872: Prevent sshd from being OOM-killed

--------------------------------------------+-------------------------------
Sshd can be one of the processes killed due to some other process eating
all available memory. Thus, no remote access after OOM. To prevent such
issues, the kernel must be instructed to avoid killing sshd in the case of
OOM:
{{{
loadproc /usr/sbin/sshd && echo "-16" >/proc/`cat
/var/run/sshd.pid`/oom_adj
}}}
