Jitted functions can't take keyword arguments named `f` in v0.4.36

[f0uriest]

Description

For example:

def myfun(x, f):
    return x*f

jax.jit(myfun)(1.0, f=2.0)

Gives

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TypeError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)

      1 def myfun(x, f):
      2     return x*f
----> 4 jax.jit(myfun)(1.0, f=2.0)

This only started happening in 0.4.36, I think the offending commit is 1c9b23c

it also happens if f is renamed to store, but works fine if renamed to something else like y etc, which seems to confirm its due to 1c9b23c

[f0uriest]

Note that the error is a bit different if using static args:

def myfun(x, f, y=5):
    return x*f + y

jax.jit(myfun, static_argnames=("y",))(1.0, f=2.0, y=2)

gives

TypeError: _argnames_partial() got multiple values for argument 'f'

This also breaks on previous versions of jax if f is renamed fixed_kwargs fixed_args, dyn_argnums (and possibly others, seems like any named args taken by some of the functions in api_util can't be the same name as args to jitted functions?)

Here's a quick fix: #25349 . It just switches our internal names to _store instead of store etc. Soon I want to get rid of linear util altogether.

[f0uriest]

Will there be a new release soon? This is a breaking change for interpax and likely other packages (f is a pretty common variable name for math-y functions)

[hawkinsp]

Actually, yes. I'm aiming to make one on or about Dec 15.
