alpha: convert to use arch_gettimeoffset()

Converts alpha to use GENERIC_TIME via the arch_getoffset()
infrastructure, reducing the amount of arch specific code we need to
maintain.

I suspect the alpha arch could even be further improved to provide and
rpcc() based clocksource, but not having the hardware, I don't feel
comfortable attempting the more complicated conversion (but I'd be glad to
help if anyone else is interested).
