    The norm is computed over all gradients together, as if they were
    concatenated into a single vector. Gradients are modified in-place.

    Args:
        parameters (Iterable[Tensor] or Tensor): an iterable of Tensors or a
            single Tensor that will have gradients normalized
        max_norm (float or int): max norm of the gradients
        norm_type (float or int): type of the used p-norm. Can be ``'inf'`` for
            infinity norm.

    Returns:
        Total norm of the parameters (viewed as a single vector).
