Several info commands rely on the 'mon_cpu' field in the Monitor
struct. This field can be updated using the 'cpu NN' command.

The processing for HMP passthrough commands, however, does not
use the global 'Monitor *' instance, instead creating a brand
new instance on the stack for HMP command executed. This breaks
anything setting/getting the current monitor CPU

 $ ./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -cdrom ~/boot.iso -qmp stdio -smp 4
 {"QMP": {"version": {"qemu": {"micro": 50, "minor": 15, "major": 0}, "package": ""}, "capabilities": []}}
 {"execute":"qmp_capabilities"}
 {"return": {}}
 {"execute":"human-monitor-command","arguments":{"command-line":"info cpus"}}
 {"return": "* CPU #0: pc=0x000000000010017c (halted) thread_id=2570 \r\n  CPU #1: pc=0x00000000000ff0a2 (halted) thread_id=2570 \r\n  CPU #2: pc=0x00000000000ff0a2 (halted) thread_id=2570 \r\n  CPU #3: pc=0x00000000000ff0a2 (halted) thread_id=2570 \r\n"}
 {"execute":"human-monitor-command","arguments":{"command-line":"cpu 2"}}
 {"return": {}}
 {"execute":"human-monitor-command","arguments":{"command-line":"info cpus"}}
 {"return": "* CPU #0: pc=0x000000000010017c (halted) thread_id=2570 \r\n  CPU #1: pc=0x00000000000ff0a2 (halted) thread_id=2570 \r\n  CPU #2: pc=0x00000000000ff0a2 (halted) thread_id=2570 \r\n  CPU #3: pc=0x00000000000ff0a2 (halted) thread_id=2570 \r\n"}

In that example, the '*' should have moved from CPU #0, to CPU #2
but it did not.

The simple fix is to just copy the existing 'mon_cpu' field into
the new temporary Monitor instance, before the HMP command is
run, and copy the updated value back to the global instance
afterwards.

That's why human-monitor-command takes an additional argument for what 
CPU should be set.  This is intended behavior.  IOW, don't use the cpu 
command with the human monitor passthrough.
