[Bug 793660] [NEW] Update hdparm to newest upstream version to fix drive compat problems

[Roland Dreier]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: hdparm

Per upstream changelog:

hdparm-9.35
        - third go at fixing cdb issues, fixing -B flag.  Got it this time (finally).
hdparm-9.34
        - fix bad/missing cdb transfer length field for IDENTIFY and some other commands

we've seen issues with 'hdparm -B254' crashing FW on some SSDs due to
the malformed IDENTIFY command it sends; hdparm 9.37 fixes that for us.
Similarly I think problems like bug #548513 would probably be fixed by
updating too.

Please update hdparm to at least 9.35... (9.37 is the latest upstream)
