There is no provision to create a blob property without
providing binary data. This data is needed to fill inside
the blob.

With subsequent patches, blob properties are modified to
receive well defined structures by the user application.
DRM creates a blank blob (initialized with all zeros) which
can be filled by user application through set_blob ioctl.
