First of all, sorry. I've misread codes. Essential problem is that kLIBC
dup() does not work on a directory fd. So this patch tries to use a path
instead of fd.

And dirfd() always returns -2 as I said before. But dirfd() is executed
only if continue_readdir is true.

For examples, rm -rf fails like this.
