// Apply upsampling strided convolution and write to intermediates. It reserves DOWNSAMPLE_REPLICATION_PAD_LEFT for replication padding of the downsampilng conv later

Setting this param to a list has a problem of generating different compilation commands (with diferent order of architectures) and leading to recompilation of fused kernels.
Set it to empty stringo avoid recompilation and assign arch flags explicity in extra_cuda_cflags below
BigVGAN is a neural vocoder model that applies anti-aliased periodic activation for residual blocks (resblocks).
New in BigVGAN-v2: it can optionally use optimized CUDA kernels for AMP (anti-aliased multi-periodicity) blocks.
Args:
h (AttrDict): Hyperparameters.
use_cuda_kernel (bool): If set to True, loads optimized CUDA kernels for AMP. This should be used for inference only, as training is not supported with CUDA kernels.
Note:
- The `use_cuda_kernel` parameter should be used for inference only, as training with CUDA kernels is not supported.
- Ensure that the activation function is correctly specified in the hyperparameters (h.activation).
