Current DiamondRapids hasn't supported cache model. Instead, document
its special CPU & cache topology to allow user emulate with "-smp" &
"-machine smp-cache".

+ Diamond Rapids product has a topology which differs from previous Xeon
+ products. It does not support SMT, but instead features a dual core
+ module (DCM) architecture. It also has core building blocks (CBB - die
+ level in CPU topology). The cache hierarchy is organized as follows:
+ L1 i/d cache is per thread, L2 cache is per DCM, and L3 cache is per
+ CBB. This cache topology can be emulated for DiamondRapids CPU model
+ using the smp-cache configuration as shown below:
+
+ Example:
+
+ ::
+
+ -machine smp-cache.0.cache=l1d,smp-cache.0.topology=thread,\
+ smp-cache.1.cache=l1i,smp-cache.1.topology=thread,\
+ smp-cache.2.cache=l2,smp-cache.2.topology=module,\
+ smp-cache.3.cache=l3,smp-cache.3.topology=die\
