Proposal to revert bfb41d98f63cb9fb72cb7c82618be10bc6d52c33

Jens,

Commit bfb41d98f63cb9fb72cb7c82618be10bc6d52c33 changed
verify_pattern=0x55aa55aa to verify=pattern:0x55aa55aa.

It's useful to use verify_pattern with another verify option though,
especially the verify=meta option. Can we either revert the above commit or
come up with another way to do both verify_pattern and verify_meta at the
same time? I'll send a patch if we come up with a good solution.

Maybe I should just add a verify=meta_and_pattern:0x55aa55aa option?

My original intention in having separate verify_pattern and verify options
was that the data that goes into the buffer should be thought of separately
from the buffer header.

Thanks,
Shawn
