Bug description:
  Hello, here's my system info

  ~$ lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
  Release:	16.04

  ~$ apt-cache policy udisks2
  udisks2:
    Installed: 2.1.7-1ubuntu1
    Candidate: 2.1.7-1ubuntu1
    Version table:
   *** 2.1.7-1ubuntu1 500
          500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  
  Here's the problem: udisks2 constantly shows that my ssd temperature is 99°C (210°F), but in reality it's 30°C

  in the GUI app ("Disks") it shows the wrong temperature too. hddtemp
  works well though:

  ~$ sudo hddtemp /dev/sda
  /dev/sda: PNY EU SSD CS1311 240GB: 30°C
