Upstream response:

----------------
Unless someone has the hardware in question and wants to fix this for good I
think the only option is to blacklist this device for SMART. DK-disks won't be
able to use the SMART data of these USB bridges then.

Could someone please do the following for me:

Check the results of the following commands on the hdds in question. I'd assume
that they either trigger the reset problem or won't produce any SMART data.

skdump sat16:/dev/sdXXX
skdump sat12:/dev/sdXXX
skdump sunplus:/dev/sdXXX
skdump jmicron:/dev/sdXXX

Then, please include the lsusb -v data for this drive, so that I know what to
check against in the blacklist.
-----------------

Please do the four skdump commands (prefixed with sudo) and copy&paste their outputs. Then do "lsusb -v > /tmp/lsusb.txt" and attach /tmp/lsusb.txt. After each skdump command, please unplug and replug the drive, so that they all start from a defined state and aren't affected by the previous command.

Preferably you could send the results directly to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=515881, but sending them here is fine as well, I'll forward them.

Thanks everyone!
