You're right.

I'll drop the one in qemu_machine_creation_done().  Rationale:

* Before the patch, we reject -drive if=T when T != none and nothing
  claimed it.  We warn unless the board claimed it.  "Nothing claimed
  it" is known only after qemu_create_cli_devices().

* After the patch, we reject -drive if=T when T != none and the board
  didn't claim it.  This is known earlier, after
  machine_run_board_init().
