directly pass update_util as int flag without syncing iter (#2695)

Summary:

as title, this change will eliminate device to host sync for the iter buffer during each iteration, which achieves better performance and avoid pottential bottleneck due to the sync point

this change covers all frontend usage of remap util which covers both ITEP & CEL
