can we just remove this altogether and let if fail if used? or does it cause deeper issues if we do?
Remove use local_rank to set cuda devices all together. Previously this was behind a feature flag but instead of maintaining the 2 versions, its easier to just consolidate since the local multiple-GPU runs are bugged right now and multiple ranks can be assigned on the same device. Each rank now will only see their local GPU (GPU-0) and not 8 devices.
After this there shouldn't be any code that tries to assign a cuda device that isn't "cuda" or "cuda:0".
