[PATCH] Fix XFree86 build

[Matthew Wilcox]

Hi Linus.

Andries changed the struct member's name from "period" to "rate"
back in October 2002.  This was great for kernel code, but not so good
when the header is used for userspace (ie the XFree86 build uses it).
The following patch restores the old name for the benefit of userspace.
