When installing deepspeed with torch-cpu installed we sometimes (incorrectly) detected sparse attention was compatible when it is not. This would trigger a triton install which would fail. This came from ITP when trying to install deepspeed elasticity SDK. In the future I think we might need to add a new deepspeed-elastic repo/package since the SDK also does not need torch at all and we're getting complaints about that too. This is a bandaid to get it working for them though.
