usb-creator causes udisks-daemon to peg the CPU and leak memory

[Silviu C.]

How I'm able to reproduce this:

1. Start the Startup Disk Creator
2) Plug in the USB flash drive

-nautilus complains that it cannot mount the drive. Well d'oh! Of course it can't. Shouldn't it know why already? Anyway...

3) Choose "erase"
4) The "erasing" does not happen but a generic error pops up. (it's in the screenshots attached)
5) close the startup disk creator
6) launch top and see udisks-daemmon peg on core and eating RAM like's its cookies

At this point you can either kill it or leave it alone and after the system runs out of memory the kernel will eventually kill it

Ugh, I believe this is a duplicate of Bug #1048792. Marking it as such
