Here cpu_num decoded from MSG_ADDR is physical CPU ID, I think that it is not meaningful to compare it with s->num_cpu.

Later in this function, cpu_num is used to index into the s->cpu[] array:

     qemu_set_irq(s->cpu[cpu_num].parent_irq, 1);

and s->cpu is allocated like this in the realize function:

     s->num_cpu = id_list->len;
     s->cpu = g_new(DINTCCore, s->num_cpu);

So the new check here looks valid for me, at least right now. Or what else would you suggest here?

I prefer separate function dintc_cpu_by_arch_id(), this piece of code is not tested.

      cs = cpu_by_arch_id(cpu_num);
This is ok to use cpu_by_arch_id now, in later when CPU hotplug is support with dintc, there should be self CPU search logic like ipi irqchip.
