Starting qemu-system-unicore32 without the -kernel parameter results in
an assert() returns false and aborts qemu. This patch replaces it with a
proper error message followed by exit(1).

This seems a temporary kludge for 2.10 but not the correct long-term fix.
As commented in another thread [1] where I got a bit discomfited, it'd
be nice if during the 2.11 schedule the industry provide some help to
clean/unify the loader.c code, ideally remove all duplicated code not
arch-specific and use hw/core/loader*.
