 * process. Consider the case when we have a Tensor that is split into multiple
 * protos during serialization, in deserialization, we have to fill the Tensor
 * in multiple calls to Deserialize, therefore we need to create a new Tensor
 * with the correct size and data type before the call to Deserialize, because
 * otherwise we will have to check whether the function call is the first call
 * to initialize the underlying Tensor, which makes the function stateful and
 * complicated.
 *
 * The legacy code get away with this problem by passing in a partially
 * initialized Tensor and use Resize and mutable_data to set the correct size,
 * data type and allocate memory for the Tensor, so the state is encoded in
 * these function calls. e.g. mutable_data will allocate memory on the first
 * call and it will return a pointer to the allocated memory on later calls.
