This patch fixes a trivial bug that solves one regression in fortran testsuite.  There are
two left:
gfortran.dg/bounds_check_9.f90 and gfortran.dg/bounds_check_fail_2.f90

I am quite convinced the code makes correct decision here and I put request to the original
PR http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31119

We was overly conservative here just because we did not handle multipl exit
loops, so the testcase passed by accident rather than by decision.  Perhaps
this is actually bug in -fbounds-check implementation?
