def convert_conv2d_weight_memory_format(module, memory_format):
    r"""Convert ``memory_format`` of ``nn.Conv2d.weight`` to ``memory_format``
    The conversion recursively applies to nested ``nn.Module``, including ``module``.
    Note that it only changes the memory_format, but not the semantics of each dimensions.
    This function is used to facilitate the computation to adopt NHWC kernels, which
    provides considerable speed up for fp16 data on CUDA devices with compute capability >= 7.0

    .. note::
        Calling ``model.to(memory_format=torch.channels_last)`` is more aggressive
        than the utility function ``convert_conv2d_weight_memory_format``. Any
        layer with 4d weight will be affected by ``model.to``, which does not
        necessarily benefit from conversion to specified ``memory_format``.
        One place we are confident in is that NHWC(channels_last) conversion for
        convolution in cuDNN, As it is beneficial to run convolution in NHWC,
        even in cases where we have to apply permutation to input tensors.

        Hence our strategy here is to convert only the weight of convolution to
        channels_last. This ensures that;
        1. Fast convolution kernels will be used, the benefit of which could
           outweigh overhead of permutation (if input is not in the same format)
        2. No unnecessary permutations are applied on layers that do not benefit
           from memory_format conversion.

        The optimal case is that, layers between convolution layers are channels
        last compatible. Input tensor would be permuted to channels last when it
        encounters the first convolution layer and stay in that memory format.
        Hence following convolutions will not need to permute its input tensor.

        In case where a channels last incompatible layer is between convolution
        layers, we need to permute the input tensor back to contiguous format
        for that layer. The input tensor will go through the remaining layers in
        contiguous format and be permuted to channels last when it encounters
        another convolution layer. There's no point in propagating that
        permutation to an earlier layer, as most layers are quite agnostic to
        ``memory_format``.

        This claim might change when PyTorch supports fusion of permutation, as
        there might have been a better spot to fuse the permutation other than
        immediately before a convolution.

    Args:
        module (nn.Module): ``nn.Conv2d`` & ``nn.ConvTranspose2d`` or container

            e.g. ``torch.channels_last`` or ``torch.contiguous_format``

    Returns:
        The original module with updated ``nn.Conv2d``
