udev cdrom_id rules prevent unmounted CD from spinning down

The cdrom_id udev rules seem to be preventing the cdrom drive on my
laptop from spinning down.  Upon inserting a disk, it will spin up
to full speed, then the motor will turn off.  Before the disk stops
completely, however, it will spin right up again, then begin to stop,
then spin up, then begin to stop, ad infinitum.

This only occurs whilst no filesystem is mounted off the device, and
deleting /lib/udev/rules.d/60-cdrom_id.rules solves the problem, at
least until the next time udev gets updated.

My laptop is a ThinkPad T500, which has a SATA cdrom drive attached to
an Intel ICH9M/M-E SATA AHCI controller.
