-- no debconf information

This started happening after I upgraded from Debian 11 to Debian 12.  This copy 
of Debian is running as a VM under VMWare ESXi and I have a number of USB hard 
drives connected to it.   This message is coming from two of them, one a 
Western Digital and one an older Buffalo.  
I've seen this bug reported in other venues (i.e. other distributions) but it 
never seems to get fixed, although in one report it looks like a maintainer 
said they were simply going
to supress the message, which would be good.  The message appears at about 6 
minute intervals and is several individual lines which makes filtering it out 
with grep difficult. 
Here is an example of the message:

May 20 01:00:50 lhNAS udisksd[65284]: Error probing device: Error sending ATA 
command IDENTIFY DEVICE to '/dev/sdm': Unexpected sense data returned:
                                      0000: f0 00 01 00  50 00 01 0a  80 00 00 
00  00 1d 00 00    ....P...........
                                      0010: 00 00 00 00  00 00 00 00  00 00 00 
00  00 00 00 00    ................
                                       (g-io-error-quark, 0)

Reports in other venues say the issue is most common with Western Digital 
drives.   I've tried changing the loglevel in /etc/udisks2/udisks2.conf but 
that doesn't stop the 
messages even when set to the "Alert" level.   
 
Functionality isn't affected, but if you have a number of hard drives causing 
this message to be put out every 6 minutes it gets very difficult to find 
anything else in the log,
especially since you have to use multiple filters to get rid of them all.   
This message should be eliminated or set to notice level and the loglevel 
directive in the
config file then needs to be fixed to actaully affect messages going into the 
syslog.
