Beschreibung
As reported: "In flashinfer.nvfp4_quantize, the type of the argument a_global_sf is inconsistent. For cuda, it is a host side value; for cute-dsl, it is a device side tensor. The function description is not clear enough. We should make it host side and passed as a function argument.
What we might be able to do relatively easily is to change the cute-dsl backend kernel to accept either (a) a device side tensor of size 1 and dtype float32 (what we support today); or (b) a single float value that trivially comes from host. That way it would be backwards compatible for those who might be using the device-side tensor."
