I asked Rob about this yesterday, he suggested adding:
riscv,isa-extensions:
  if:
    contains:
      const: zcf
  then:
    contains:
      const: zca
to the existing property, not in an allOf. I think that is by far the
most readable version in terms of what goes into the binding. The output
would look like:
cpu at 0: riscv,isa-extensions: ['i', 'm', 'a', 'd', 'c'] does not contain items matching the given schema
(for d requiring f cos I am lazy)

Also, his comment about your one that gives the nice message was that it
would wrong as the anyOf was pointless and it says all items must be
"zca". I didn't try it, but I have a feeling your nice output will be
rather less nice if several different deps are unmet - but hey, probably
will still be better than having an undocumented extension!
