Hello

This is a widespread problem with AMD machines. Buggy platforms
reporting invalid L3 cache information in this case. Upgrading the BIOS
may help.

If your program doesn't care about cache affinity, you can hide/ignore
the message by setting HWLOC_HIDE_ERRORS=1 in the environment.

We get so many report about these AMD L3 bugs that I added more details
to this FAQ, and I wonder if we should start manually fixing these.
