Change directory to the parent before processing directory

When using nftw with uclibc, there appears to be a problem when using FTW_CHDIR with FTW_DEPTH regarding climbing from the descent.  After processing a directory's contents, it should change working directory back to the parent before processing the directory since the pathname is relative to the parent.  Not doing so results in ENOENT being returned when processing the directory while still being in that directory.  The following patch fixes this problem and seems to work well after testing.
