[None][fix] Restore Gemma4 shared-KV draft loading - #17837
Conversation
* Why? Standalone MTP checkpoint support misclassified Gemma4's complete shared-KV assistant as an MTP-head-only checkpoint. Startup then rejected the assistant because it contains model weights rather than `mtp.*` tensors. * What? Keep Gemma4's required second draft-weight loading pass while routing it through the full draft-model loader. Exercise the matching 26B-A4B assistant in the multimodal MMMU accuracy test and register its MTP baseline. Signed-off-by: William Zhang <133824995+2ez4bz@users.noreply.github.com>

Before landing, we should make sure that this doesn't regress this checkpoint: https://huggingface.co/nvidia/Nemotron-3-Super-120B-A12B-BF16-MTPv2
(No CI coverage for this as this was not public when we added the feature)
The fix confuses me a bit. _use_shared_kv_cache will be set to True for Gemma models. Thus separate checkpoint loading will be disabled. But the Gemma4 MTP heads genuinely come from a separate checkpoint file. It seems like the proper way to fix this is to relax whatever assertion is preventing weight loading
* Why? Shared KV cache usage does not describe the contents of an MTP checkpoint. Gemma4 supplies a complete assistant model, while Nemotron MTPv2 supplies heads only. Using cache sharing as a weight-loading signal obscures these distinct contracts and makes future changes fragile. * What? Classify one-model MTP checkpoints as target-embedded, heads-only, or full draft models. Let target implementations declare when their assistant must be built from its own config, while keeping shared KV cache selection as an independent runtime property.
