Great, thanks!

Oh, you are right! I didn't notice it!

It seems to be indeed BIOS bug. numactl shows the same information.

Luckily,
[root@ibm-js22-vios-02-lp2 hwloc-1.0.1]# lstopo --ignore numanode a.xml
[root@ibm-js22-vios-02-lp2 hwloc-1.0.1]# hwloc-distrib --xml a.xml --single 4
can be used to WA the issue. 

I'm looking forward to have --ignore switch available in hwloc-distrib  once 
hwloc 1.1 is released.

Thanks
Jirka
