Hi Sedat,

My apologies for that mistake. The initial commit, as present in Linus tree, is:
83e8b90e1d2cc5ff5d2443f2486c2d786a4997ce - scripts/config: use sed's
POSIX interface

Thus, the commit message for this patch should read:
scripts/config: fix variable substitution command

Commit 83e8b90e1d2cc5ff5d2443f2486c2d786a4997ce ("scripts/config: use sed's
POSIX interface") accidentally changed the separator between sed `s' command
and its parameters from ':' to '/'.

Revert this change.
