KVM: selftests: Rename "num" param to "nr_pages" for physical page allocators

This commit renames the "num" parameter to "nr_pages" in the physical page
allocator APIs to clarify the parameter's role. It also updates the function
comment for __vm_phy_pages_alloc() to drop kerneldoc style and explicitly
state that success is guaranteed.

[Severity: Low]
This isn't a bug, but there appear to be grammatical issues in the newly
added comment block for __vm_phy_pages_alloc().

Could "at or the minimum" be "at or above the minimum", and "allocate pages"
be "allocated pages"?
