Revert "armv7m: Guard against no -kernel argument"
This reverts commit 01fd41ab3fb69971c24a69ed49cde96086d81278. The generic loader device (-device loader,file=kernel.bin) can be used to load a kernel instead of the -kernel option. Some boards have flash memory (pflash) that is set via the -pflash or -drive options. Allow starting QEMU without the -kernel option to accommodate these scenarios.
