When cupy>=10 is installed, importing chainer immediately raises the following error.
This PR is to fix this issue.
I am quite aware that there is (and should be) absolutely no guarantee that chainer and the latest cupy work fine together. But for those who have to use or maintain codes that still rely on some of chainer functionalities with their own risk, I'd like to prevent the situation where just importing chainer immediately fails.
