Bug Description

The SMART test can crash on disks that don't support SMART, with output like the following:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/tmp/nest-yqaayt2d.8b76b98c54ecc796fe034dc492233d83c30e6c1aa9f5536597a452889fee630d/disk_smart", line 321, in <module>

    previous_entries, returncode = get_smart_entries(disk)

This was observed on a test of an HP BL460c Gen8; specifically, https://certification.canonical.com/hardware/201309-14182/submission/105511/.
