udisks already cooperates by checking the power status before issuing
more commands that would cause the drive to spin up.  I suppose I
could have added a sysfs flag exposing the sleep state and had
userspace check that first, but it seems silly to add a whole new ABI
and to check the power state rather than simply fixing the existing
command to not wake the disk in order to tell userspace what we
already know using a code path we already have.
