Title:
  Wrong RAM size shown for server

Status in MAAS:
  Invalid
Status in lshw package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in lshw source package in Xenial:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Currently MAAS relies on DMI for the info about RAM size.
  DMI seems not to be always correct, this results in wrong RAM amount shown in the MAAS UI.

  In my case :

  ......
  handle: DMI:0017
              - lshw:description:
                DIMM Synchronous 2666 MHz (0.4 ns)
              - lshw:product:
                M386A8K40BM2-CTD
              - lshw:vendor:
                Samsung
              - lshw:physid:
                0
              - lshw:serial:
                375610DE
              - lshw:slot:
                P1-DIMMA1
              - lshw:size:
                units: bytes
                34358689792
  ......

  full machine yaml : https://pastebin.canonical.com/p/TqpvzXj2sx/

  However product M386A8K40BM2-CTD is actually 64GB:

  I have 12 of those, and on boot it shows me the correct amount 12 *
  64GB:
