- Changed the order of `backward`, `step`, `zero_grad` to `zero_grad`, `backward`, `step` ([#6147](https://github.com/PyTorchLightning/pytorch-lightning/pull/6147))


- Changed default for DeepSpeed CPU Offload to False, due to prohibitively slow speeds at smaller scale ([#6262](https://github.com/PyTorchLightning/pytorch-lightning/pull/6262))


- Renamed `pytorch_lightning.callbacks.swa` to `pytorch_lightning.callbacks.stochastic_weight_avg` ([#6259](https://github.com/PyTorchLightning/pytorch-lightning/pull/6259))
