I ended up removing the udisks2 and udisks packages, and after killing
udisks2, /dev/sda is finally asleep.


Why is the smart data requested all the time?  Is something processing
this data to send a warning if there is an indication that a disk might
fail?

Besides removing this udisks stuff, what is the proposed way of
disabling these daemons?

There isn't even any decent documentation about these things.
