The PowerBook 520, 540 and 550 all have macintosh_config->ident == 72
because that's their gestalt ID in MacOS. Hence, Linux describes them all
as "Powerbook 520". Change that to "Powerbook 500 series", which is more
accurate.

This is a user-visible change, through /proc/hardware.
Do you know if any userspace relies on the old string value?
I did a search on sources.debian.org and didn't find anything. OTOH, a
search for "powerbook" doesn't actually return Michael's packages that
used to be available for powerbooks...
Anyway, I agree that /proc/hardware should remain stable, so please
disregard this patch.
