Subject: [PATCH 3/4] alpha: Fix jiffies based cputime assumption

That code wrongly assumes that cputime_t wraps jiffies_t. Lets use
the correct accessors/mutators.

In practice there should be no harm yet because alpha currently
only support tick based cputime accounting which is always jiffies
based.
