[ Upstream commit eeb71c950bc6eee460f2070643ce137e067b234c ]

turbostat could be terminated by general protection fault on some latest
hardwares which (for example) support 9 levels of C-states and show 18
"tADDED" lines. That bloats the total output and finally causes buffer
overrun. So let's extend the buffer to avoid this.
