The only thing this patch does is to allow the use of [first...last]
annotation for initialization. What actual benefit does that give us?

In other words, why would I want to apply this? Just so that we can use
[first...last] annotation with the added cost of having to manage setting
fgraph_lru_next and fgraph_lru_last to -1 and then comparing them?

Personally, I find the original code easier to maintain, as it's simple and
doesn't add extra management.
