If '-o' was used more than 64 times in a single invocation of gpio-hammer,
this could lead to an overflow of the 'lines' array. This commit fixes

Just noticed that there isn't a space before the "'-o'" in the third line of the explanatory comment in the first part of the patch, will send a third version of the patch with a space before the "'-o'"
