Subject: bcdedcc1afd6 breaks search in menuconfig

When I do

make menuconfig

then press '/' in order to search for a symbol, and I type 'EFI', for
example, and press enter, I get:

 │  Enter CONFIG_ (sub)string to search for (with or without "CONFIG_")    │  
 │ ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │  
 │ │EFImake[1]: *** [menuconfig] Segmentation fault                      │ │  
 │ └───────────────────────────────────────────────make: *** [menuconfig] Error 2

and the terminal is left in an inconsistent state which I need to
'reset'. But, more importantly, the search is b0rked now.

Reverting the above commit fixes the issue.
