    Initialize the Userbuffers communicator for overlapping tensor-parallel communications with
    GEMM compute in te.Linear, te.LayerNormLinear and te.LayerNormMLP modules.

    Parameters
    ----------
    shape : list
            shape of the communication buffer, typically set to be the same as the global shape of
            the input tensor to a te.TransformerLayer forward pass, with the sequence and batch
            dimensions collapsed together -- i.e.: `(sequence_length * batch_size, hidden_size)`
    tp_size : int
              number of GPUs in the tensor-parallel process group
    use_fp8 : bool = False
              allocate the communication buffer for FP8 GEMM inputs/outputs
    dtype : torch.dtype = torch.bfloat16
            non-FP8 data type of the communication buffer when `use_fp8 = False`
    ub_cfgs: dict = None
             Configuration dictionary with the structure
             ```

                <gemm_name> : {

             ```
             for `te.TransformerLayer` GEMM layers in `["qkv_fprop", "qkv_dgrad", "qkv_wgrad",
             "proj_fprop", "proj_dgrad", "proj_wgrad", "fc1_fprop", "fc1_dgrad", "fc2_dgrad",
             "fc2_fprop", "fc2_dgrad"]`.
    bootstrap_backend : str = None
                        `torch.distributed` communication backend for the all-gather, broadcast and
                        barrier collectives during Userbuffers initialization. Not all backends are
                        valid for every cluster configuration and distributed launch method even if
                        they are available in PyTorch. When left unset, the initialization prefers
                        to use the MPI backend, falling back first on Gloo and then NCCL if MPI is
                        not available. Setting `NVTE_UB_WITH_MPI=1` when building TE overrides this
                        option and always initializes Userbuffers with direct MPI calls in C++,
                        which also requires `MPI_HOME=/path/to/mpi/root` to be set at compile time.

        #     non-tensor extra state.
        # (2) PyTorch's checkpointing infrastructure does not remap
        #     devices for "extra state" like it does for "state dict".
        #     Thus, we want to avoid putting extra state on the GPU

        # (3) The extra state consists of many small tensors. If we
        #     want to copy them all to CPU, then we need to avoid the
        #     overhead of many GPU-CPU memory transfers.
