The following sequence of steps kill the QEMU:

- Hotplug a CPU
- Change the default CPU to the newly hotplugged cpu using "cpu" HMP command.
- Hot unplug the CPU
- Run "info cpus"

Fix this by not letting monitor_get_cpu() to return a CPU which is marked
for unplug.

mon_cpu could be freed so it would cause use after free,
Greg was looking into the same issue see his patch:
"PATCH] monitor: fix dangling CPU pointer"
