I just checked hdparm-9.45 and it does *not* have that change AFAICT.
Sorry, it was likely a red herring.
Upstream's changelog does mention the following:
"""
hdparm-9.45:
- fixed blocksize handling in fibmap code to use result from
FIGETBSZ in more places (Anton Altaparmakov).
- fixed divide by zero exception in geom.c
- tidying up formatting in sgio.c
hdparm-9.44:
- changed reg_flags struct to more closely match kernel
definition (Lucas Magasweran).
- added fwdownload mode "E" support (Rusty Carruth).
- fix timeouts for security-erase (again!)
- change display of security "supported" to handle ambiguous
reporting from drives
- don't rely upon C-library for byte-swapping
- added --dco-setmax support, courtesy of Geoff Papilion.
"""
(Assuming it rings any bells).
