This commit implements SMBIOS Type 16 (Physical Memory Array)
generation with a hybrid approach supporting both:
1. Explicit definition via Device Tree 'smbios' node:
Child node under '/smbios/smbios/memory-array' will be used to
populate as individual Type 16 structure directly.
- Properties follow SMBIOS field names with lowercase letters and
hyphen-separated words (e.g., 'memory-error-correction',
'maximum-capacity', 'extended-maximum-capacity', etc.).
- This method supports precise platform-defined overrides and system
descriptions.
2. Fallback to automatic DT-based discovery:
If child node under '/smbios/smbios/memory-array' does not exist,
the implementation will:
- Scan all top-level 'memory@' nodes to populate Type 16 structure with
inferred size and location data.
- Scan nodes named or marked as 'memory-controller' and parse
associated 'dimm@' subnodes (if present) to extract DIMM sizes and
map them accordingly.
This dual-mode support enables flexible firmware SMBIOS reporting while
aligning with spec-compliant naming and runtime-detected memory topology.
Type 16 support is under GENERATE_SMBIOS_TABLE_VERBOSE to avoid
increasing rom size for those platforms which only require basic SMBIOS
support.
