Reverted upstream, as David Zeuthen objected to this. Quoting:
1. Checking if a disk is asleep does not wake up the disk (unless its
firmware is broken).
2. It's not atypical to have disks without any IO for _days_. We still
want to check SMART status for disks in this case.
If people have disks with broken firmware there are other ways to have
udisks not read their SMART status.
** Changed in: udisks2 (Ubuntu)

Title:
Disk standby timer is broken
Status in “udisks2” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
udisks' / gnome-disk-utility's support for the drive standby timer is
broken. If the standby timer is set to at least 10 minutes ( which is
the minimum on many drives ), every 10 minutes udisks tries to update
the smart status of the drive, which resets the standby timer.
