Fixes #10851

Speeds up profiling results dramatically.

For the following script:

import torch
import time

ITER = 2000

x = torch.randn(1, 1, requires_grad=True)

with torch.autograd.profiler.profile() as prof:
    y = x
    for i in range(ITER):
        y = 3 * y - 2 * y
    y.backward()

start = time.time()
print("Done running. Preparing prof")
x = str(prof)
print("Done preparing prof results")
end = time.time()
print("Elapsed: {}".format(end - start))

I get 7s before / 0.13s after these changes.
