I don't think ordering matters. forgets are inherently asynchronous
and there's no correctness dependency on a forget arriving before or
after a read/write request. In the /dev/fuse path ordering isn't
preserved either (eg the order they're queued by the kernel is not the
order they're delivered to userspace).

Thanks,
