doc: fix incorrect formula to calculate CommitLimit value

The formula to calculate "CommitLimit" value mentioned in kernel documentation is incorrect.
Right formula is: CommitLimit = ([total RAM pages] - [total huge TLB pages]) * overcommit_ratio / 100 + [total swap pages]

if strict overcommit accounting is enabled (mode 2 in
'vm.overcommit_memory').
The CommitLimit is calculated with the following formula:
CommitLimit = ('vm.overcommit_ratio' * Physical RAM) + Swap
CommitLimit = ([total RAM pages] - [total huge TLB pages]) *
overcommit_ratio / 100 + [total swap pages]
For example, on a system with 1G of physical RAM and 7G
of swap with a `vm.overcommit_ratio` of 30 it would
yield a CommitLimit of 7.3G.
