Scanning blocks in sub-loops for uses is unnecessary, as they were
already handled while dealing with the containing sub-loop.

This speeds up LCSSA for highly nested loops. For the test case in PR37202, it
halves the time spent in LCSSA. In cases were we won't be able to skip
any blocks, the additional lookup should be negligible.
