### Reproduction

I'm trying to convert transformers GPT2LMHeadModel to onnx format using `torch.onnx.export`

I got the following warning: 
```
/Users/Project/.venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/transformers/models/gpt2/modeling_gpt2.py:797: TracerWarning: Converting a tensor to a Python boolean might cause the trace to be incorrect. We can't record the data flow of Python values, so this value will be treated as a constant in the future. This means that the trace might not generalize to other inputs!
  if batch_size <= 0:
```

I tried to print `batch_size` here, and I got `tensor(3)`(which should be `3` here?)


### Expected behavior

```shell
No warnings when converting
```

@lewtun for ONNX here

@HaoboGu before we can answer the issue could you please add a complete reproducible code snippet here?<|||||>@patrickvonplaten 

Sure

Just so I understand a bit better - is there a specific reason why you're trying to avoid the warnings?  <|||||>@lewtun I just worry about the warning may lead to unpredictable results when I use the model.<|||||>Hey @HaoboGu, I don't think the warning would lead to unpredictable results (or can you clarify a bit more) :-) Can we maybe just leave it? <|||||>@patrickvonplaten yeah, no problem if it's expected
