Issue: Model config is logged twice on startup
Labels: WIP

Currently, the model config is logged twice during startup:

1. via `AutoConfig.from_pretrained`
2. via `AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained` -> `AutoConfig.from_pretrained`

Should there be a state variable that prevents the logging of the same config twice?

This happens for example with all example scripts:

Example log when running `run_clm.py`:

To get the traceback I just added:
```
        import traceback
        traceback.print_stack()
```
