What does this PR do?
Fixes #29942
Flash Attention 2 inference equivalence tests for Whisper can fail due to higher numerical variance compared to the eager attention implementation.
This PR increases the tolerance (
atol,rtol) specifically for Whisper FA2 tests to account for this behavior. The change is scoped only to Whisper tests and does not affect global test tolerances.Motivation
From the issue discussion, Whisper exhibits larger deviations in decoder hidden states under Flash Attention 2. This leads to test failures even though the behavior is still functionally correct.
Other models do not require this adjustment, so the fix is applied locally rather than modifying shared test utilities.
