Good question!

I think both. One board I at least has soldered-on and DIMMs. So the
array might be:

struct dimarray { u8 dimm_address; struct spd_entry *table; int tablesize};

struct valid_spd_devices spd_table = { {0xa0, spd_table_onboard,
nelem(spd_table_onboard)}, {0xa1, NULL,}, {0,0}};

Note that if we go to a generic function we need to have the size in
the struct.

This starts to raise the question: is the generic function more
trouble that it is worth? I am now beginning to think so. What if the
second DIMM is an spd device?
There are lots of variations possible, and it may just be simpler not
to get too fancy.
