Refactoring (Redesign of existing code that doesn't affect functionality)
Description:
We ship
half.hpp
from caffe, but we only use it in host code. Usage in device code results in missing includes etc. Moreover, we don't (and shouldn't) use Caffe's half directly.The inclusion of half.hpp poses problems when an attempt is made to compile a file using
half.hpp
with NVCC.This PR removes direct use of half.hpp and adds
#error
that safeguards against such misuse.See #5651
