any plans to implement SMBIOS 3.0 (64 bit address) support?

To make adding 64 bit SMBIOS easier, may be extract entry point and
size (and other relevant fields) instead of referring to them directly.
Then we'd just need to add additional search for 3.0 entry point and
all other code won't need to be changed - tables themselves remain the
same as far as I can tell.

Could we avoid this aliasing? It is extremely confusing to see buffer
used everywhere and then suddenly value in the last line. What is the
reason?

Why export variable here? It is up to user what to do with it later.

One non-trivial structure field that is rather awkward to get
otherwise is UUID.
