alpha: Define pgprot_modify to silence tautological comparison warnings
Alpha's pgprot_noncached, pgprot_writecombine, and pgprot_device are all identity macros, so the generic pgprot_modify() produces tautological self-comparisons that GCC warns about: include/linux/pgtable.h:1701:25: warning: self-comparison always evaluates to true [-Wtautological-compare] Since all caching attributes are no-ops on Alpha, define pgprot_modify() to simply return newprot.
