since your update 43.0, whenever i type in a URL it first of all shows me "visit [site]" and then "[site]" by itself directly below it. It is redundant and was not there before and I dislike it greatly.

For example, when I type "t" in the address bar, it shows "Visit tumblr.com" first, and then tumblr.com by itself right below it. how do i stop it from saying "visit [site]" and just show me the site by itself, like before?
