The patch is to fix the confusing assert fail message caused by
un-initialized device structure (from bite sized tasks).

The bug can be reproduced by

./qemu-system-x86_64 -nographic -device cfi.pflash01

The CFI hardware is dynamically loaded by QOM realizing mechanism,
however the realizing function in pflash_cfi01_realize function
requires the device being initialized manually before calling, like

./qemu-system-x86_64 -nographic
-device cfi.pflash01,num-blocks=1024,sector-length=4096,name=testcard

Once the initializing parameters are left off in the command, it will
leave the device structure not initialized, which makes
pflash_cfi01_realize try to realize a zero-volume card, causing

/mnt/EXT_volume/projects/qemu/qemu-dev/exec.c:1378:
find_ram_offset: Assertion `size != 0\' failed.

Through my test, at least the flash device's block-number, sector-length
and its name is needed for pflash_cfi01_realize to behave correctly. So
I think the new asserts are needed to hint the QEMU user to specify
the device's parameters correctly.
