Various improvements to "Groupwise scaling along M" (#2037) namely to address: #2087, context vllm-project/vllm#11868 (comment)
Improvements:
this PR moves to a layout of (i.e. standard M-major):
making it much easier to integrate into inference libraries
These improvements were part of vLLMs adoption of this kernel https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/blob/v0.7.1/csrc/cutlass_extensions/gemm/collective/sm90_mma_tma_gmma_ss_warpspecialized_fp8_blockwise_scaling.hpp (PR: vllm-project/vllm#11868) and is in current wide scale use. Our goal is to rely on the CUTLASS implementation but that currently not possible given the issues above.
