env->cpu_num is intended to map to the s390x architecture concept of a
cpu address, which is a numeric ID used to differentiate between CPUs
when a targeted event occurs (like an unsolicited interrupt that must be
handled on behalf of a particular CPU).  s390x architecture currently
cannot tolerate CPU destruction.
