Avoid race condition in creating checkpoint directories (#530)

* Avoid race condition in creating checkpoint directories

In multi-GPU training, several processes run the code that creates checkpoint dirs. This fix avoids a probably rare situation (but it happened to me) where another process created a dir between the `exists` check and the `makedirs` call.

* Remove the now unneeded check for dir existence
