" From 9bced07b1f66626eeb89bebe9626a1822435d68c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yan Xu Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2026 17:11:36 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 10/11] fix(mHC): restore original PR's n-stream hidden_dim path in interleaved schedule MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The previous guard removal also dropped the n-stream hidden_dim calculation in forward_backward_pipelining_with_interleaving, which was part of the original mHC PR (#2943). Restore it. Also remove the pp_group-None raise in get_tensor_shapes that was added defensively later — not present in the original PR.

The raise was later removed in 9bced07b1 to match the original PR's behavior, but this test was missed and continued to expect the raise. Drop it to match.
