changed the title
The check for `/dev/nvidiactl` to determine if the CUDA plugin can be used is unreliable because in some cases the default path for driver installation is different [1]. This patch changes the logic to check if a GPU device is available in `/proc/driver/nvidia/gpus/`. This approach is similar to `torch.cuda.is_available()` and it is a more accurate indicator. The subsequent check for support of the `cuda-checkpoint --action` option would confirm if the driver supports checkpoint/restore.
