I disagree with that. IMO this kind of macros should ideally resemble
the structure name they are used to fill (struct property_entry in
this case). And there are already definitions for DEV_PROP_* to
describe the types, so using something like DEVPROP_* here is just
confusing.

If PROP_ENTRY_* is really not good enough, we can change them
PROPERTY_ENTRY_*. But is PROP_ENTRY_* really so bad?

Rafael, what is your opinion?
