File exists error when used with TPU 
 Hi,

I'm getting a "File exists" error when I use [text dataset](https://github.com/huggingface/nlp/tree/master/datasets/text) for pre-training a RoBERTa model using `transformers` (3.0.2) and `nlp`(0.4.0) on a VM with TPU (v3-8).

I modified [line 131 in the original `run_language_modeling.py`](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/master/examples/language-modeling/run_language_modeling.py#L131) as follows:

```python
# line 131: return LineByLineTextDataset(tokenizer=tokenizer, file_path=file_path, block_size=args.block_size)
dataset = load_dataset("text", data_files=file_path, split="train")
dataset = dataset.map(lambda ex: tokenizer(ex["text"], add_special_tokens=True,
                                        truncation=True, max_length=args.block_size), batched=True)
dataset.set_format(type='torch', columns=['input_ids'])
return dataset
```

When I run this with [`xla_spawn.py`](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/master/examples/xla_spawn.py), I get the following error (it produces one message per core in TPU, which I believe is fine).

It seems the current version doesn't take into account distributed training processes as in [this example](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/a573777901e662ec2e565be312ffaeedef6effec/src/transformers/data/datasets/language_modeling.py#L35-L38)?

 Thanks for all the details.
The two cached files are supposed to be the same. I suspect that the caching has a problem with the tokenizer.
Which tokenizer did you use ?
