This test intends to check `tail` for:
"redundant headers for overlapping inotify events while it was
suspended". However, it then runs `tail ---dis` which disables
inotify events. This test should either test both
(`for mode in '' '---disable-inotify'; do`) like what the other
tests do, or only run the test with inotify enabled `tail`.
Since it looks like the intention here was the latter, removing
the `fastpoll` option should suffice.
