Title:
  hdparm 9.43 -> 9.45+ update request

Status in hdparm package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in hdparm package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  This is, in fact, NOT a real bug report.

  However, as Manfred asked me to report it here anyway (https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hdparm/+question/270310 ) I will do so. 
  (Let alone because the genuine Debian OS is also still at 9.43...)

  Yes, (*)Ubuntu is VERY much behind with hdparm, quasi-stuck at 9.43
  for more than 2 years. This is a bit much.

  If you'd like to know why it may be sensible to update, here's an
  example:

  https://sourceforge.net/p/hdparm/bugs/51/

  --read-sector is byte-swapped in every version <= 9.43. Mark fixed
  this in 9.45+. unfortunately you guys were asleep with both eyes open
  and still haven't considered a tool update for 2 + years :)
