Description
#1561 has already fixed the issue that the function
AttnFuncWithCPAndKVP2P
does not support MLA (Multi-latent attention). Specifically, #1561 pad tensor v to head_dim_qk and convert MLA to normal attention. This PR improves #1561 by removing the padding and using MLA kernels to reduce the communication and computation overhead.Many thanks to SuperCB from xiaohongshu and RandMist from wechat team for their contributions.
