Review comment:
I see, thanks for elaborating. It seems to be like that you revealed a bug
in our backend about the handling of the missing cudnn.
I don't think this is what should happen. If a user uses an operator
although it's not supported, it should not make a false calculation but rather
throw the error properly. This method would mask a problem that a user would
silently encounter. We should rather investigate why the error is not being
thrown and fix that.
