Shameer, I know this may look like overkill since the hunk we are
removing is buggy but can you please test this patch on platforms
with RMR to make sure we are not triggering regressions by removing
it (by the specs that's what should be done but current firmware
is always something to reckon with) ?

Thanks,
Lorenzo
