  inconsistent automounting on startup

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: devicekit-disks

  When starting a GNOME session without dk-disks running already, gvfs
  D-BUS activates dk-disks, which causes an automount attempt on
  internal hard disks. This doesn't happen if dk-disks is already
  running.

  I suspect it's due to dk-disks sending out "new volume" events during
  coldplugging.

  Reproducer:

    ps ux|grep gvfs|awk '{print $2}'|xargs kill
    gvfs-mount -l

  This does not trigger automounting. However, if this spawns dk-disks
  it happens:

    sudo killall devkit-disks-daemon
    ps ux|grep gvfs|awk '{print $2}'|xargs kill
    gvfs-mount -l
