Michal,
I checked the virtio_mem module and it's loaded -
lsmod |grep virtio_mem
virtio_mem 32768 0
And I can't make the actual value change to non-zerio.
-> virsh update-memory pc --requested-size 256M
or
->virsh setmem pc 1000M
This is unrelated. 'setmem' modifies balloon not virtio-mem-pci device.

Any other suggestions ?
Is there something in the guest dmesg? This is what I get:
virsh update-memory-device gentoo --alias ua-virtiomem 256M
[ 17.619060] virtio_mem virtio3: plugged size: 0x0

And I can see actual size updated:

Maybe David knows the answer.
