OpenSSH and coreutils' chroot call chroot first and then chdir. Doing it
this way is a bit safer because otherwise something could happen between
chdir and chroot to the specified path (like exchange of links) so the
working directory would not end up within the chroot environment.
This is a purely defensive measure.

If a user has home directory "/" and login shell "*" then login and su
enter an endless loop by constantly switching to the next subsystem.
This could also be achieved with a layered approach so just checking
for "/" as home directory is not enough to protect against such a
misconfiguration.
Just break the loop if it progressed too far. I doubt that this has
negative impact on any real setup.
