small nit, maybe as two lines:

        if (pbuf.eeprom.atom4.data.version == 2 ||
            pbuf.eeprom.atom4.data.version == 3) {

I guess that the previous author must have 100col (?) not 80col for
editing. It is readable in 100col but just a little unusual on a
collaborative project in git repo to write code this way. It is not
anything you are the author for, so ignore my review comment here.

I am concerned about a memory safety code mistake in future with this.
Let the compiler do our work for us. Avoid strcat or requirement that
the programmer knows buffer length for a scoped string allocation and
several other actions, as:

if (pbuf.eeprom.atom4.data.version == 3) {
	printf("Onboard module: %s\n",
	       (pbuf.eeprom.atom4.data.onboard_module & BIT(0) ?
	       "WIFI/BT" :
	       "None"));
}

Seeing the example of product_id would this onboard_module flag be
described as <xx> and not <?> ?

I understand that pcb_revision is stated as <?> however a pcb_revision
of zero value is not a sensible value because of the error handling, so
that can be different.

Looks good to me with only some nits about style choices. With that,
