If kvm_arch_remove_sw_breakpoint() in CPU_FOREACH() always be fail, it
will let 'cpu' NULL. And the next kvm_arch_remove_sw_breakpoint() in
QTAILQ_FOREACH_SAFE() will get NULL parameter for 'cpu'.

And kvm_arch_remove_sw_breakpoint() can assumes 'cpu' must never be NULL,
so need define additional temporary variable for 'cpu' to avoid the case.

Good catch. To make it clear in the changelog: The actual issue is that
we misuse "cpu" as an iteration variable while its original value is
still in use. That cpu can eventually become NULL this way is one result.

OK, thanks. If necessary, I shall send patch v2 for additional comments.
(if really necessary to send, please let me know)
