Subject: memblock: emphasize that memblock_alloc_range() returns a physical address

Rename memblock_alloc_range() to memblock_phys_alloc_range() to emphasize
that it returns a physical address.  While on it, remove the 'enum
memblock_flags' parameter from this function as its only user anyway sets
it to MEMBLOCK_NONE, which is the default for the most of memblock
allocations.
