[host_callback] Adjust the legacy compatibility mode for call_with_device
The jax.experimental.host_callback module is deprecated and will be removed.
See #20385.
The next step in the removal is to flip the flag
--jax_host_callback_legacy
toFalse
, meaning that the host callback APIs will be implemented by way ofio_callback
. In this mode, thecall_with_device
andtap_with_device
cannot be supported.We add a temporary mechanism to be used internally for a couple of projects that still use
call_with_device
: allow the use but force the device to be the first device. This mechanism is not used externally, and attempting to usecall_with_device
will continue to raise an error.
