OverflowError: There was an overflow in the <class 'pyarrow.lib.ListArray'>. Try to reduce writer_batch_size to have batches smaller than 2GB

## Describe the bug
Despite having batches way under 2Gb when running `datasets.map()`, after processing correctly the data of the first batch without fuss and irrespective of writer_batch_size (say 2,4,8,16,32,64 and 128 in my case), it returns the following error :

> OverflowError: There was an overflow in the <class 'pyarrow.lib.ListArray'>. Try to reduce writer_batch_size to have batches smaller than 2GB

Note that I always run `batch_size=writer_batch_size` :

## Steps to reproduce the bug
```python
datasets.map(lambda example : {"column_name" : function(arguments)}, batched=False, remove_columns = datasets.column_names, batch_size=batch_size, writer_batch_size=batch_size, disable_nullable=True, num_proc=None, desc="blablabla")
```
## Introspecting CUDA memory during bug

Placed within `function(arguments)` the following statement to introspect memory usage, merely a little over 1/4 of 2Gb
`print(torch.cuda.memory_summary(device=device, abbreviated=False))`

I am very unsure on why you tagged me here. I am not a maintainer of the Datasets library and have no idea how to help you.

fixed

Ok got it, tensor full of NaNs, cf.
