When I use TFBertEncoder in my laptop, I get an error.I can not build a model. Here is a simple examples.
# 🐛 Bug

## Information

Model I am using TFBertEncoder:

Language I am using the model on English:

The problem arises when using:
* [ ] my own modified scripts: (give details below)

The tasks I am working on is:
* [ ] my own task or dataset: (give details below)

## To reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. When I use, TFBertEncoder, I get an error.

Here is my code.
```py
import tensorflow as tf
import numpy as np
from transformers.modeling_tf_bert import BertConfig, TFBertEncoder

print(tf.__name__, tf.__version__)
input_a = tf.keras.layers.Input(shape=(91, 128))

config = BertConfig()
config.hidden_size = 128
config.num_attention_heads = 4

# config.output_attentions = False
# config.output_hidden_states = False

head_mask = [None for _ in range(config.num_hidden_layers)]
encoder_output = TFBertEncoder(config=config)([input_a, None, head_mask])[0]
print(encoder_output.shape)

test_out = tf.keras.layers.Dense(128)(encoder_output)
print(test_out.shape)
```
## Expected behavior
Here is the error:

```

I also meet this problem? Do you solve it? @shange1996 <|||||>> I also meet this problem? Do you solve it? @shange1996

No. The problem bothers me.<|||||>Me too. When I change use keras not tf.keras, it has another problem...<|||||>It bothers me, too.<|||||>> It bothers me, too.

Now I solve it. NOT import it, instead of copying the layer code in your main code.
Like this:

        super().__init__(**kwargs)

                "heads (%d)" % (config.hidden_size, config.num_attention_heads)

Yes! Just copy， no import.<|||||>Hey guys, 

I looked into the issue and I think the best solution is to use a keras layer wrapper as follows:

```python
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import tensorflow as tf
import numpy as np
from transformers.modeling_tf_bert import BertConfig, TFBertEncoder

print(tf.__name__, tf.__version__)

config = BertConfig()
config.hidden_size = 128
config.num_attention_heads = 4


class NewTFBertEncoder(tf.keras.layers.Layer):

    def __init__(self, config):
        super(NewTFBertEncoder, self).__init__()
#        self.inputs = tf.keras.layers.Input(input_shape)  # not really needed here IMO.
        self.encoder = TFBertEncoder(config=config)
        self.dense = tf.keras.layers.Dense(config.hidden_size)

    def call(self, inputs):
        head_mask = [None for _ in range(config.num_hidden_layers)]
        output = self.encoder([inputs, None, head_mask])[0]
        dense_output = self.dense(output)

        return dense_output


new_bert_encoder = NewTFBertEncoder(config)
output = new_bert_encoder(np.ones((2, 91, 128)))  # batch size , sequence length, hidden size
```<|||||>Two things:

- If a customized layer is to be used with standard keras layers (as is the case here), as far as I know it is recommended to use a `keras.layers` wrapper class. Also see here: https://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/keras/layers/Lambda#variables_2
- I don't think that the tf.keras.inputs class is needed here (or do you have a speciifc use case in mind?). Keras usually creates such an instance under the hood anyways, see: https://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/keras/layers/InputLayer

Also pinging @jplu to check if my code proposal is the right choice here.<|||||>@shange1996 @etveritas - Let me know if the proposed solution works for you. If not feel free to re-open the issue :-) 
Also linking this issue to: https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/issues/5046. <|||||>Both work for me , thanks!<|||||>Hey ! This error appears when some variable are initialized elsewhere than in the Layer itself. The solution that @patrickvonplaten proposes is a good one!! Good job people :)
