The compile-free DeepseekV32 MTP draft layer returned the pre-final-norm hidden as both the draft-logits hidden and the recycled previous_hidden_states. Recycling the pre-final-norm hidden mismatches the draft model's hnorm and drops MTP acceptance; the reference deepseek_mtp.py (PR #45895) recycles the post-final-norm hidden.

Fix by computing the post-final-norm hidden once -- fusing the residual-add into the final RMSNorm (fused_add_rms_norm) -- and returning it for both tuple positions. compute_logits then applies the LM head only (no second RMSNorm), so the norm count is unchanged (one per draft step per layer) while the recycled hidden is now correctly post-norm.

The tuple return is understood by both the V2 speculator (isinstance-tuple check in autoregressive/speculator.py) and the legacy proposer (model_returns_tuple() is True for the DeepSeekMTPModel architecture used by GLM-5.2 / DeepSeek-V3.2). SharedHead and the proposer contracts are unchanged.

The compile-free DeepseekV32 MTP draft layer returned the pre-final-norm
hidden as both the draft-logits hidden and the recycled
previous_hidden_states. Recycling the pre-final-norm hidden mismatches
the draft model's hnorm and drops MTP acceptance (~3.6 -> ~4.4 on
GLM-5.2-NVFP4); the reference deepseek_mtp.py (PR #45895) recycles the
post-final-norm hidden.

Fix by computing the post-final-norm hidden once -- fusing the
residual-add into the final RMSNorm (fused_add_rms_norm) -- and returning
it for both tuple positions. compute_logits then applies the LM head only
(no second RMSNorm), so the norm count is unchanged (one per draft step
per layer) while the recycled hidden is now correctly post-norm.

The tuple return is understood by both the V2 speculator (isinstance-tuple
check in autoregressive/speculator.py) and the legacy proposer
(model_returns_tuple() is True for the DeepSeekMTPModel architecture used
by GLM-5.2 / DeepSeek-V3.2). SharedHead and the proposer contracts are
unchanged.
