Subject: 2.5.53-mm2 timing problems

When playing netris, the shapes fall a lot faster in 2.5.53-mm2 than in
2.4.20 and in 2.5.53. Also, the login prompt says "login timed out
after 60 seconds" when only about 10-15 have passed.

Seems that this is because different parts of the kernel are using
different values of HZ (!).

In include/asm-i386/param.h, please add:

#ifdef __KERNEL__

+#include <linux/config.h>

#ifdef CONFIG_1000HZ
