SMART data

As per https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1001856
skdump output for 5 reallocated-sector-count does not match smartctl

skdump /dev/sda | grep reallocated-sector-count

  5 reallocated-sector-count    100   100     5   2818091 sectors 0x2b002b000000 prefail online  yes  yes 

smartctl -a /dev/sda | grep Reallocated_Sector_Ct
  5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct   0x0033   100   100   005    Pre-fail  Always       -       43 (0 43)


Note that 43 = 0x2b
The value 0x2b002b000000 looks to have included the value 0x2b twice with some bit shifting/alignment change.

There are some other redhat users who have had the same problem. I don't know if this bug impacts all drives or just certain models.

I have attached by BLOB
