This is same as tb_property_entry so probably should use that or better do
it like we have in that root_directory as array of u32.

At least do not duplicate it all over.

The block comment format is

	/*
	 * ..
	 * ..
	 */

Ditto everywhre.

This can use TB_PROPERtY_TYPE_DATA.

This can use TB_PROPERTY_TYPE_DIRECTORY.

Thi can use TB_PROPERTY_TYPE_DIRECTORY.
