[PATCH 2/9] fifo8: introduce head variable for fifo8_peekpop_bufptr()

[Mark Cave-Ayland]

Rather than operate on fifo->head directly, introduce a new head variable which 
is
set to the value of fifo->head and use it instead. This is to allow future
adjustment of the head position within the internal FIFO buffer.
