Okay, thanks.

Okay, yeah, that makes a little more sense. Again, I don't know the
timeline on these specific kernels, but in the kernel.org kernel
branches the Seagate NO_ATA_1X patch seems to have been applied in
Nov/Dec 2017... so I would guess that it was included-from-the-start in
the Ubuntu 18.04 kernels, but it would make sense for it to have been
newly-added over the lifetime of the 16.04 distribution.

(Out of curiousity, what's the path to the package repository given in
your /etc/apt/sources.list file? The wiki.odroid.com pages have links
for downloading the "install Ubuntu OS" image, but I have't found any
information about where the associated package repository is located...)
