HF_DATASETS_OFFLINE=1 didn't stop datasets.builder from downloading 
State: closed
Labels: name: bug

## Describe the bug
According to https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/loading_datasets.html#loading-a-dataset-builder, setting HF_DATASETS_OFFLINE to 1 should make datasets to "run in full offline mode". It didn't work for me. At the very beginning, datasets still tried to download "custom data configuration" for JSON, despite I have run the program once and cached all data into the same --cache_dir. 

"Downloading" is not an issue when running with local disk, but crashes often with cloud storage because (1) multiply GPU processes try to access the same file, AND (2) FileLocker fails to synchronize all processes, due to storage throttling. 99% of times, when the main process releases FileLocker, the file is not actually ready for access in cloud storage and thus triggers "FileNotFound" errors for all other processes. Well, another way to resolve the problem is to investigate super reliable cloud storage, but that's out of scope here.

## Steps to reproduce the bug
```
export HF_DATASETS_OFFLINE=1
python run_clm.py --model_name_or_path=models/gpt-j-6B --train_file=trainpy.v2.train.json --validation_file=trainpy.v2.eval.json --cache_dir=datacache/trainpy.v2
```

## Expected results
datasets should stop all "downloading" behavior but reuse the cached JSON configuration. I think the problem here is part of the cache directory path, "default-471372bed4b51b53", is randomly generated, and it could change if some parameters changed. And I didn't find a way to use a fixed path to ensure datasets to reuse cached data every time.

## Actual results
The logging shows datasets are still downloading into "datacache/trainpy.v2/json/default-471372bed4b51b53/0.0.0/c2d554c3377ea79c7664b93dc65d0803b45e3279000f993c7bfd18937fd7f426".
