I think you have misunderstood something. The Authentication function
indeed sends packets with the FBUS_FRAME_HEADER first, but so does every
other function in nk6100.c that sends anything to the phone, regardless
of the link type. I think the constant is just awkwardly named.

The Authentication() function uses sm_message_send() and sm_block() to
send and wait for packets just like other functions so it shouldn't be
FBUS specific.

But perhaps the constant FBUS_FRAME_HEADER should be named something
else and moved away from include/links/fbus.h?
(Or maybe _I_ have misunderstood something...)
