When noevents is true and small buffer is used the allocated memory for
holding the data may be smaller than the hard-coded 64 bytes. This can
cause the iio_generic_buffer to crash.

Following was recorded on beagle bone black with v6.0 kernel and the
digit fix patch:

==339==  Address 0x4ab3518 is 0 bytes after a block of size 160 alloc'd

==339==    by 0x115BB: main (iio_generic_buffer.c:677)

Fix this by always using the same size for reading as was used for
data storage allocation.
