According to http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26508#c0, the
following would be a permanent workaround:
Create a file /etc/udev/rules.d/80-udisks.rules with the following
contents:
KERNEL=="sd*[!0-9]", ATTR{removable}=="0", ENV{ID_BUS}=="usb",
ENV{DEVTYPE}=="disk", ENV{UDISKS_DISABLE_POLLING}="1"
KERNEL=="sd*[!0-9]", ATTR{removable}=="0", ENV{ID_BUS}=="ata",
ENV{DEVTYPE}=="disk", ENV{UDISKS_DISABLE_POLLING}="1"
KERNEL=="sd*[!0-9]", ATTR{removable}=="0", ENV{ID_BUS}=="scsi",
ENV{DEVTYPE}=="disk", ENV{ID_VENDOR}=="ATA", ENV{UDISKS_DISABLE_POLLING}="1"
This has been approved by me and it really stops the polling. Anyhow, I
think that this is a bug of udev or udisks because it makes no sense to
poll for SMART data all the time if it isn't evaluated. I also think
that it should be configurable to poll for SMART data only on disks
which are either active or idle.
