 (potentially sharded) checkpoint inside a model, potentially sending weights to a given device as they are
    loaded.

    <Tip warning={true}>

    Once loaded across devices, you still need to call [`dispatch_model`] on your model to make it able to run. To
    group the checkpoint loading and dispatch in one single call, use [`load_checkpoint_and_dispatch`].

    </Tip>

    Args:
        model (`torch.nn.Module`):
            The model in which we want to load a checkpoint.
        checkpoint (`str` or `os.PathLike`):
            The folder checkpoint to load. It can be:
            - a path to a file containing a whole model state dict
            - a path to a `.json` file containing the index to a sharded checkpoint
            - a path to a folder containing a unique `.index.json` file and the shards of a checkpoint.
            - a path to a folder containing a unique pytorch_model.bin file.
        device_map (`Dict[str, Union[int, str, torch.device]]`, *optional*):
            A map that specifies where each submodule should go. It doesn't need to be refined to each parameter/buffer
            name, once a given module name is inside, every submodule of it will be sent to the same device.
        offload_folder (`str` or `os.PathLike`, *optional*):
            If the `device_map` contains any value `"disk"`, the folder where we will offload weights.
        dtype (`str` or `torch.dtype`, *optional*):
            If provided, the weights will be converted to that type when loaded.
        offload_state_dict (`bool`, *optional*, defaults to `False`):
            If `True`, will temporarily offload the CPU state dict on the hard drive to avoid getting out of CPU RAM if
            the weight of the CPU state dict + the biggest shard does not fit.
        offload_buffers (`bool`, *optional*, defaults to `False`):
            Whether or not to include the buffers in the weights offloaded to disk.
        keep_in_fp32_modules(`List[str]`, *optional*):
            A list of the modules that we keep in `torch.float32` dtype.
        offload_8bit_bnb (`bool`, *optional*):
            Whether or not to enable offload of 8-bit modules on cpu/disk.
