Ahh, okay.

I think it is actually as simple something like this, which makes it
invalid to have "d" without "f":

If you do have d without f, the checker will say:
cpu@2: riscv,isa-extensions: False schema does not allow ['i', 'm', 'a', 'd', 'c']

At least that's readable, even though not clear about what to do. I wish
the former could be said about the wall of text you get for /each/
undocumented entry in the string.
