This is a step backward.  Please let's get rid of FIQ_START instead.
This should be removed from enable_fiq() and disable_fiq(), and the 
arguments to those functions should use the absolute IRQ number instead.  
for instance, there is FIQ_FLOPPYDATA in mach-rpc/include/mach/irqs.h 
which could be defined as 64 instead of 0, etc.
