Subject: alpha: Allow HZ to be configured

With the 1024Hz default, we spend 50% of QEMU emulation
processing timer interrupts.

+	  The frequency at which timer interrupts occur.  A high frequency
+	  minimizes latency, whereas a low frequency minimizes overhead of
+	  process accounting.  The later effect is especially significant

+	  Note that some Alpha hardware cannot change the interrupt frequency
+	  of the timer.  If unsure, say 1024 (or 1200 for Rawhide).
