Description

Describe the bug
Can Deepspeed handle multiple inference calls at the same time? That means multiple simultaneous calls to model.generate(...) on one GPU. Or are multiple concurrent calls to the tokenizer a problem?

To Reproduce

import transformers
from transformers import GPTJForCausalLM
import torch
import deepspeed
tokenizer = transformers.AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("EleutherAI/gpt-j-6B", pad_token='<|endoftext|>', eos_token='<|endoftext|>', truncation_side='left')
model = GPTJForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
            "EleutherAI/gpt-j-6B"
            revision="float16",
            torch_dtype=torch.float16,
            low_cpu_mem_usage=True,
            use_cache=True,
            gradient_checkpointing=True,
)
model = deepspeed.init_inference(
            model=model,
            mp_size=1,
            dtype=model.dtype,
            replace_method="auto",
            replace_with_kernel_inject=True
)
device = 'cuda'
model.to(device)

prompt = tokenizer("This is a test sentence", return_tensors='pt', truncation="only_first", max_length=2048)
prompt = {key: value.to(device) for key, value in prompt.items()}
out = model.generate(**prompt,
                                  min_length=16,
                                  max_new_tokens=100,
                                  do_sample=True,
                                  top_k=35,
                                  top_p=0.6,
                                  temperature=1,
                                  no_repeat_ngram_size=4,
                                  use_cache=True,
                                  pad_token_id=tokenizer.eos_token_id,
                                  stopping_criteria=StoppingCriteriaList([stopping_criteria])  # Here I provide some stopping criteria
)
res = tokenizer.decode(out[0])
torch.cuda.empty_cache()

Expected behavior
Successful concurrent calls to tokenizer(...)and model.generate(...).

Research direction

Start with the provided Python reproducer, focusing on concurrent tokenizer(...) and model.generate(...) calls on one CUDA device. Check the behavior with the listed DeepSpeed, Transformers, PyTorch, and CUDA versions; done would require a documented concurrency result or a clearly scoped fix supported by a test.
