[LTP] [PATCH] inotify: cleanup - limit masks, use SAFE_ wrappers

Hi Vorel,

Thanks for the review!

- inotify12.c needs read() because EAGAIN (“no second event”) is a
valid case that must be explicitly detected and treated as IN_IGNORED.

- inotify07.c does not require this distinction: SAFE_READ() is enough,
since EAGAIN just means end-of-events, while real errors are handled as
TBROK, matching the original test intent.

Best regards,
Jinseok.
