LGTM - Nice work. Please resolve conflicts.
Can we add detailed accuracy results (MMMU, RealWorldQA, Video-MMMU, MVBench, and Video-MME) in the PR description? Is the evaluation done with vllm runtime?

| - Image-text calibration with ``--calib_with_images`` now forwards multimodal batches through the complete VLM for all VLM families. Existing non-Nemotron commands may therefore produce different language-model activation ranges and output scales because the language model now observes vision-conditioned activations. Independently of the calibration dataset, recipe-based VLM PTQ now treats the complete VLM as its quantization target so recipe rules can select vision modules; built-in defaults keep the vision branch in high precision unless a model-specific recipe enables it, and custom recipes must explicitly exclude vision modules when required. |

📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Clean up the wording of both changelog entries.
Keep each entry to one or two user-facing sentences, and remove implementation-only instrumentation details from the image-text calibration fix. Preserve the documented behavior change and migration impact while focusing on what users observe.

What does this PR do?
Type of change: New feature
Adds opt-in FP8 Vision Encoder quantization recipes for Qwen3-VL and dense Qwen3.5:
fp8_vision-kv_none: FP8 Vision Encoder Linears, with the LLM and KV cache kept in high precision.fp8_vision_lm-kv_fp8_cast: FP8 Vision Encoder and LLM Linears, with FP8 KV-cache cast.Patch embedding and vision-attention BMM operands remain in high precision. With
--calib_with_images, calibration batches now pass through the complete VLM so multimodal inputs exercise the selected quantizers. This fixes image-text calibration for non-Nemotron VLMs and may change language-model activation ranges and output scales for existing commands.Usage
For dense Qwen3.5, replace
qwen3_vlwithqwen3_5in the recipe path.Testing
git diff --checkpassed.Deployment evidence with Qwen3-VL-2B on RTX PRO 6000 BSE, eight fixed frames and a BF16 LLM:
The accuracy mean covers MMMU, RealWorldQA, Video-MMMU, MVBench, and Video-MME. Serving reached 7.7% lower end-to-end latency and 7.9% higher throughput at concurrency 16.
Qwen3-VL-2B accuracy was evaluated through vLLM on B300 with
--enforce-eager. Both checkpoints used the same judge-free tasks, Qwen sampling preset, seed, and task parameters.Runtime support for quantized Vision Encoder Linears is separate from this ModelOpt checkpoint-generation change.
Before your PR is "Ready for review"
--calib_with_imagesnow performs the intended complete VLM forward and may change language-model calibration scales. Recipe-based VLM PTQ also scopes recipe rules to the complete model.
