Previous code would automatically install latest flash-attn version, newer versions have a different ABI which is incompatible with torch 2.6.0, causing a MBI mismatch and binary issues. This fix proposes fixing flash-attn to a known working version to prevent future issues with dependency updates. Updates readme to explain to the user, as well as the makefile.
I compiled and ran successfully on this version.
