+"""
+Patch transformers' finegrained_fp8.py to reject DeepGEMM on Blackwell (SM100+).
+
+DeepGEMM only supports Hopper (SM90). On Blackwell GPUs, _load_deepgemm_kernel()
+passes the SM90 check but then fails trying to download/load the kernel from HF Hub
+(rate limits, missing builds). This patch adds a check for SM100+ that raises
+ImportError, which the existing try/except in w8a8_fp8_matmul catches, falling
+back to the Triton finegrained-fp8 kernel.
+
+Also needed because the Triton finegrained-fp8 matmul has shape mismatches during
+modelopt calibration (K mismatch on quantized expert weights). The real fix is to
+upcast the model to BF16 first (see scripts/upcast_to_bf16.py).
+
+Usage:
+    python3 patch_finegrained_fp8_blackwell.py [path_to_finegrained_fp8.py]
+
+If no path given, auto-detects from the installed transformers package.
