If you put it in a global header like that, it looks like the array is
part of the generic interface. But it isn't -- only the monitor_defs
member is.
If it's declared in any header at all, as opposed to static and local
to cpu.c (why was a new monitor.c file chosen?), it should go into
target-foo/cpu.h, where most of the other cpu-specific declarations go.
