Title:
  Update hdparm to newest upstream version to fix drive compat problems

Status in “hdparm” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “hdparm” package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  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)
