cpus.c: qemu_mutex_lock_iothread fix race condition at cpu thread init
When QEMU starts the RCU thread executes qemu_mutex_lock_thread
causing error "qemu:qemu_cpu_kick_thread: No such process" and exits.
This isn't occur frequently but in glibc the thread id can exist and
this not guarantee that the thread is on active/running state. If is
inserted a sleep(1) after newthread assignment [1] the issue appears.
So not make assumption that thread exist if first_cpu->thread is set
then change the validation of cpu to created that is set into cpu
threads (kvm, tcg, dummy).
