多次反向传播PyTorch编译模块时出现RuntimeError的排查

我在开发一个PyTorch项目，实现了自定义的AxialRoPE模块，用于给张量应用轴向旋转位置编码。分别写了常规版本和基于torch.compile的编译版本。常规版本多次调用反向传播正常，但编译版本执行多次.backward()时出现如下错误：

RuntimeError: Trying to backward through the graph a second time (or directly access saved tensors after they have already been freed). Saved intermediate values of the graph are freed when you call .backward() or autograd.grad(). Specify retain_graph=True if you need to backward through the graph a second time or if you need to access saved tensors after calling backward.
