time: move PIT_TICK_RATE to linux/timex.h

PIT_TICK_RATE is currently defined in four architectures, but in three
different places.  While linux/timex.h is not the perfect place for it, it
is still a reasonable replacement for those drivers that traditionally use
asm/timex.h to get CLOCK_TICK_RATE and expect it to be the PIT frequency.

Note that for Alpha, the actual value changed from 1193182UL to 1193180UL.
 This is unlikely to make a difference, and probably can only improve
accuracy.  There was a discussion on the correct value of CLOCK_TICK_RATE
a few years ago, after which every existing instance was getting changed
to 1193182.  According to the specification, it should be
1193181.818181...
