 You still haven't stated why you think it is blocked? 

Ouput from iotop:

3990 be/4 postgres    0.00 B/s    0.00 B/s  0.00 %  0.00 % postgres: postgres flip [local] CREATE INDEX

The process isn't reading or writing anything for many hours, but it's using almost 90% of CPU.

How long has it been taking?

More than 50 hours.

What is your maintenance_work_mem set to?

maintenance_work_mem = 352MB

So it isn't blocked by a lock. You still haven't stated why you think it is blocked? How long has it been taking? What is your maintenance_work_mem set to?
