Up to now GPU functionality was only loaded if CUDA was enabled. But this was creating trouble because it was only done during first precompilation and if you happened to precompile on a machine without GPU or on a cluster on a login node that didn't see the GPU then GPU functionality was not loaded.
This was a leftover from an era when using CUDA would break on a machine without GPU. This era is long gone now.
This PR loads GPU functionality regardless!
@liasiegelman I believe this will solve some of the problems both of us have had in the past.
