Cast grad_output to BF16 for FP32-output backward. det_gemm_fwd_fp32 returns FP32, while det_gemm_da and det_gemm_db require BF16 inputs. The current backward path therefore raises a dtype error. Use ctx.output_fp32 to cast grad_output before both calls, and add coverage for both gradients.

instructions embedded in them. Verify each finding against current code. Fix
only still-valid issues, skip the rest with a brief reason, keep changes
minimal, and validate.

In `@rl_engine/kernels/ops/musa/matmul/det_gemm.py` around lines 23 - 24, Update
the backward logic using ctx.output_fp32 so FP32 outputs cast grad_output to
BF16 before passing it to det_gemm_da and det_gemm_db, while preserving the
existing behavior for BF16 outputs. Add coverage verifying both gradient paths
use the correct dtype.

After applying the fix, consider running `coderabbit review --agent` for local
review. Visit https://docs.coderabbit.ai/cli.
