Convert alpha to use clocksources instead of arch_gettimeoffset
Alpha has a tsc like rpcc counter that it uses to manage time.
This can be converted to an actual clocksource instead of utilizing
the arch_gettimeoffset method that is really only there for legacy
systems with no continuous counter.

Further cleanups could be made if alpha converted to the clockevent
model.
