The dependencies on libpciaccess and numactl are optional, so I removed
them.

However, there was a missing dependency on BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS,
since hwloc uses pthread.

Lines slightly too long, so I rewrapped.

I declared HWLOC_VERSION_MAJOR here..

... so it can be re-used here.

As I said, those dependencies are optional, so I made them as such, and
also used explicit --enable/--disable options. This allowed me to
discover that the numa support was never enabled with your submission:
the numactl package was not installing its library/header file in
$(STAGING_DIR). With an explicit --enable-libnuma, hwloc configure
script bailed out since it couldn't find the libnuma library.

So I committed a patch that installs libnuma to the staging directory
as well.

Also, I added some explicit --disable options for the things that we
don't support for now.

Committed with those issues fixed.

Thanks,

Thomas
