I sent a patch for this one last week but forgot to update the bug, sorry.

This isn't quite right as the hdparm utility itself is BSD licensed, so you
also need LICENSE_${PN} = BSD.

That said Markus was saying last week that this behaviour isn't great (and
neither was the original behaviour), so there may be more patches to
improve how LICENSE works.
