It seems a bit confusing to have both a ROOT_BLOCK flag in the
data structure and and additional root_block_enabled flag.
If nothing else it is a waste of space.

Looks like you are changing the meaning slightly. is possible
to have BR_ROOT_BLOCK set but !root_block_enabled? and what about
the inverse?
