@kpedro88 that fix is needed also in 91X but since there is a PR open for the RPC LinkBoard #18578 I expect @bapavlov can update it accordingly.

This pull request is fully signed and it will be integrated in one of the next master IBs (tests are also fine). This pull request requires discussion in the ORP meeting before it's merged. @davidlange6, @smuzaffar
