A guest with enough RAM, eg. 128G, is likely to detect savevm downtime
and to complain about stalled CPUs. This happens because we re-read
the timebase just before migrating it and we thus don't account for
all the time between VM stop and pre-save.

A very similar situation was already addressed for live migration of
paused guests (commit d14f33976282). Extend the logic to do the same
with savevm.

Applied to ppc-for-6.0, thanks.
