Currently the load_elf function in elf_ops.h uses
cpu_physical_memory_write() to write the ELF file to
memory if it is not handling it as a ROM blob. This
means we ignore the AddressSpace that the function
is passed to define where it should be loaded.
Use address_space_write() instead.

This turns out to have a bug which my testing somehow missed.
The 'as' argument to this function can be NULL, which means that
it should use address_space_memory, so we need to handle that.
(The other side of the if() doesn't need to special case NULL
because rom_add_elf_program() and the other loader.c code handle
NULL later on.)

thanks
