1. First of all the file isn't valid from "polkit-policy-file-validate" point of view. But I believe the file is OK.
$ polkit-policy-file-validate org.freedesktop.devicekit.disks.policy
org.freedesktop.devicekit.disks.policy did not validate: org.freedesktop.devicekit.disks.policy:62: parse error: parsing aborted
ERROR: org.freedesktop.devicekit.disks.policy did not validate

2. I'm not a guru but I believe that the following change should be done:
<action id="org.freedesktop.devicekit.disks.filesystem-mount-system-internal">
...
- <allow_active>auth_admin_keep</allow_active>
+ <allow_active>yes</allow_active>

Otherwise I should enter password each time when I want to mount a local disk with ext4 filesystem...
