🐛 Describe the bug
Create a new instance of LLM with device specified in a multi-gpu machine
from vllm import LLM
llm = LLM(device="cuda:1", quantization='bitsandbytes', load_format='bitsandbytes', model='unsloth/Mistral-Small-3.1-24B-Instruct-2503-bnb-4bit')
in v0.9.0.1 the model is then placed on cuda instead of cuda:1 as can also be seen in the log output (look for device_config):
