I used AutoAWQ to quantize Kimi K2

The instruct model is [here](https://huggingface.co/QuixiAI/Kimi-K2-Instruct-AWQ)

```
$ docker run -it --rm \
  --gpus all \
  --network=host \
  --shm-size=1024g \
  --entrypoint /bin/sh \
  -v /home/hotaisle/workspace/models:/models \
  -v $HOME/.cache/huggingface:/root/.cache/huggingface \
  vllm/vllm-openai:latest \
  -c "pip install blobfile && python3 -m vllm.entrypoints.openai.api_server --model QuixiAI/Kimi-K2-Base-AWQ --port 8000 --tensor-parallel-size 8 --trust-remote-code --gpu-memory-utilization 0.95 --enable-prefix-caching --enable-chunked-prefill --dtype bfloat16"```
```

vLLM seems to have a bug that prevents it from inferencing.
