It seems the warnings disappeared in the CUDA 13.3 builds, but they remained in the CUDA 12.4 builds. Any idea why that would be? |

Overview
Building the CUDA backend currently produces an enormous build log that is largely repeated "unused variable" warnings (nvcc
#177-D(declared but never referenced) and nvcc#550-D(set but never used)). This PR silences the warnings by either:if constexprblock (or similar) if the variable is only used there.[[maybe_unused]]attribute if the variable is used in more than one conditionally-compiled block.Requirements
