*** Bug 1249888 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I couldn't find any systems with SMBIOS 3 which could run RHEL 6, however dmidecode-2.12-7.el6 will install and run on a RHEL 7 system and I was able to verify it works with SMBIOS 3 on a RHEL 7 system.

The package have been downloaded to my computer, however a smbios 3.0 machine need to be a 32-socket server which is busy doing other test. I will find a time slot to do test the new dmidecode rpm.
