SAC Device Axis Mismatch When Loading Checkpoint #659

Description

@MichaelCSI

In SAC train(), a segment for the workflow when loading a checkpoint is as follows:

  1. Training state is initialized training_state = _init_training_state(...)
  2. If restore_checkpoint_path is not None, load params from the path and replace them in training_state

Issue: jax.device_put_replicated(training_state, jax.local_devices()[:local_devices_to_use]) is called at the bottom of _init_training_state() i.e. before we load checkpoint params. When we later call _unpmap((training_state.normalizer_params, training_state.policy_params)) we get an IndexError since params are not per-device: IndexError: Too many indices: 0-dimensional array indexed with 1 regular index at jax.tree_util.tree_map(lambda x: x[0], v).

For reference, the PPO implementation calls jax.device_put_replicated after the checkpoint params have been replaced in the training state.
