On the principle I'm OK with the idea. My comments on the
implementation details are inline below.

A comment stating in which unit the size is stored would be appreciated.

Should this not be ~0ull? On 32-bit systems ~0ul would be 0xffffffff not
0xffffffffffffffff.

Also it would be nice to document somewhere that 0 means memory module
not installed and all fs means size is unknown.

I'm curious, do you really need to know the amount of memory to the
byte? The SMBIOS specification itself does not support granularity
under 1 kB. I would be very surprised if any machine running Linux
today has memory modules under 1 MB. If storing in MB you wouldn't need
a u64...
