[PATCH] hddtemp reports drive name incorrectly

[Yura Pakhuchiy]

hddtemp reports drive name incorrectly for some drives:

$ sudo hddtemp /dev/sda
/dev/sda: KINGSTON RBU-SC100S37128DG �: 37°C

Note extra spaces and garbage characters before colon. This is not only minor cosmetic issue, but breaks some gnome-shell plugins for HDD temperature reporting. I've found a patch included into Fedora which fixes the issue:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1061649

hddtemp output is correct with the patch applied:

$ sudo hddtemp /dev/sda
/dev/sda: KINGSTON RBU-SC100S37128GD: 37°C

Patched package is available in my ppa: https://launchpad.net/~yura-p/+archive/ubuntu/tests
