Stack from ghstack:

It turns out it is possible to break cycles by not directly importing a
module:

  • there's a problem that torch.jit imports torch._ops and torch._ops
    import torch.jit
  • there's another problem that torch.autograd.function imports
    custom_function_call but torch._functorch.autograd_function imports
    torch.autograd.function

The "better" way to handle all of this is to do some large refactoring so
that torch._functorch.autograd_function imports some file that has
_SingleLevelAutogradFunction and then have torch.autograd.function
depend on torch.functorch.autograd_function... (and ditto for torch.jit
vs torch._ops), but I'm scared to move code around too much for BC
reasons and the fix in this PR works well.

Test Plan:

  • import torch
