Description
### Custom Node Testing
- [x] I have tried disabling custom nodes and the issue persists (see [how to disable custom nodes](https://docs.comfy.org/troubleshooting/custom-node-issues#step-1%3A-test-with-all-custom-nodes-disabled) if you need help)
### Expected Behavior
GGUF Qwen models (e.g., Q4_K_M) should run with the `--fast` argument and not crash.
### Actual Behavior
Even smaller GGUF Qwen models (e.g., Q4_K_M) that have run previously now produce the following error when run with the `--fast` argument or `--fast pinned_memory` argument:
KSampler
```
CUDA error: invalid argument
CUDA kernel errors might be asynchronously reported at some other API call, so the stacktrace below might be incorrect.
For debugging consider passing CUDA_LAUNCH_BLOCKING=1
Compile with `TORCH_USE_CUDA_DSA` to enable device-side assertions.
```
I'm aware the `--fast` argument "enables some untested and potentially quality deteriorating optimizations". The culprit appears to be the `pinned_memory` optimization.
### Steps to Reproduce
Launch ComfyUI with `--fast` or `--fast pinned_memory` argument. Run a simple workflow that includes a GGUF Unet loader node. Notice the (likely) CUDA crash.
