tensorflow: nvcc error: string_view.h: constexpr function return is non-constant

System information

• Have I written custom code (as opposed to using a stock example script provided in TensorFlow): This is what the bug is about, see below.
• OS Platform and Distribution (e.g., Linux Ubuntu 16.04): Ubuntu 16.04
• Mobile device (e.g. iPhone 8, Pixel 2, Samsung Galaxy) if the issue happens on mobile device: no
• TensorFlow installed from (source or binary): binary
• TensorFlow version (use command below): v1.11.0-0-gc19e29306c 1.11.0
• Python version: 3.6.3
• Bazel version (if compiling from source): none
• GCC/Compiler version (if compiling from source): 5.4.0
• CUDA/cuDNN version: 8.0, 9.0, 9.1
• GPU model and memory: doesn’t matter
• Exact command to reproduce: See below.

Describe the problem

Compiling some custom native op with nvcc fails, with basically this error:

absl/strings/string_view.h(501): error: constexpr function return is non-constant

Compiling the same code with g++ does not have this issue. This seems specifically related to the CUDA frontent cudafe.
