* add PADDLE_ENFORCE

* while_grad_op first commit

* Add `BlockDescBind::FindRecursiveOrCreateVar()` and fix bugs

* refine code

* fix unittest bug

* increament is default inplace

* Init commit

* Make executor use ProgramDescBind

* Change Attribute from BlockDesc to BlockDescBind

* Since we will get the program desc in RNN, just BlockDesc is not
  enough.

* Rewrite RNN

* Pass Python

* AddBiasOp does not care num_flatten_dims

* Stash

* Fix MacOS Compile

* Pass RNN forward

* add python test

* refactor test

* Make compile pass

* add gradopmaker

* First draft done

* Polish code

* add grad op maker and grad infershape

* Polish code

* Fix backward.cc bug

* Remove unused unittest

* no type error

* Update

* Make RNN Pass unittest

Set gradient's data type based on its forward variable

* Init commit

* Make executor use ProgramDescBind

* Change Attribute from BlockDesc to BlockDescBind

* Since we will get the program desc in RNN, just BlockDesc is not
  enough.

* add sparse support for sum op

* typo fix

* fix gpu build error
