[Bug libc/5145] New: alpha: Fix up NBPG in <sys/user.h>


Linux headers stopped providing PAGE_SIZE at some point, over a year 
ago, and <asm/page.h>, at least for the Alpha, is now solely for the 
kernel use only, wrapped by an #ifdef __KERNEL__ protection, so there is 
no point in including it at all.

 Here is a patch that provides the necessary definition in a way similar 
to what the i386 port does.  Without this change programs that make use of 
NBPG do not build for the Alpha, e.g. (taken from a build of BFD):

alpha-linux-gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -DTRAD_CORE -I. -I. -I./../include -W -Wall 
-Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Werror -mcpu=ev4 -pipe -O2 -fomit-fram
e-pointer -c trad-core.c  -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/trad-core.o
trad-core.c: In function 'trad_unix_core_file_p':
trad-core.c:122: error: 'PAGE_SIZE' undeclared (first use in this function)
trad-core.c:122: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
trad-core.c:122: error: for each function it appears in.)
