I don't understand why the existing code doesn't suffice.  A domain
being restored is conceptually no different from one which is still
being constructed.

The creation_finished flag should still be clear at this point during
restore.  Is it perhaps something else doing a pause/unpause on the
domain before qemu starts up?  The creation_finished flag should only be
set at the first point the refcount goes to zero, not the first unpause
hypercall.
