I sent an email to a kernel developer and he told me that Seagate is making improvements, although still there are devices which requires firmware updates so the UAS ban will be still in place. He implied that I was lucky if a Windows tool managed to access the SMART info of the device with that firmware bug.

    33He told me too how to disable the UAS quirk, which I did, and now I can access the SMART info in UAS mode. It seems this hard disk model from Seagate doesn't have any firmware bug.
