workaround by replacing the offending binary with one, that does
nothing:

cd /usr/lib/udisks
mv udisks-helper-ata-smart-collect udisks-helper-ata-smart-collect.orig
echo "#!/bin/sh
exit 0" > udisks-helper-ata-smart-collect
chmod +x udisks-helper-ata-smart-collect

beware: this will of course break udisk's ability to collect any smart
data even from non-idling drives. also this workaround will be reversed
by updates of udisk and has to be reapplied.


another note on the bug: seems that the no-wakeup switch/argument of 
udisks-helper-ata-smart-collect does not work - at least in my case(s).
