If you want to print just one compatible value, you could use that method.

To give all of the information needed to understand the problem, the error
message would need to include all of the strings contained in the compatible
property and all of the .board values in the da8xx_ddrctl_board_confs[] array
(currently only one entry, but coded to allow additional entries in the
future).

It is hard to justify an error message that complex.

I would just print an error that no match was found.
