The function qemuBuildCommandLine() may take a long time, for

if we configure tens of vifs for the guest, each may cost hundrands of
milliseconds to create tap dev, senconds in total. Thus, unlock vm
before calling it.

Why do you need to unlock the object? The VM is starting at this point
so you won't be able to save any time since APIs will either be blocked
by a job or by the fact that the VM was not started.
Would you care to explain what are the benefits of doing this?
NACK unless you provide a convincing example where this would help.
