        This function loads tensors and extra state including fp8 metadata.
        This metadata is essential for copying fp8 tensors, as the copy_ function
        uses the scale_inv parameter from fp8_meta to set the correct scaling factor
        for the new tensor.
        Hence, this extra state must be loaded before the tensor copying process,
        not after, as is typically done in _load_from_state_dict.
        Tensors are copied into fp8 tensors only when self.primary_weights_in_fp8=True,
        otherwise, this behavior is not required.
