[PATCH] Fix 2.6.7 Alpha compilation

[Peter Chubb]

When using gcc 3.3.3 on alpha, the current BK head doesn't compile.
     -- there's an external declaration for abs() in the same scope as
     a macro definition in arch/alpha/time.c
     -- The compiler is picky about `const' declarations, which breaks
     on bitops.h.

Here's a patch to fix:
