Documentation/devicetree/bindings/submitting-patches.txt states:
"
5) The wildcard "<chip>" may be used in compatible strings, as in
the following example:
- compatible: Must contain '"nvidia,<chip>-pcie",
"nvidia,tegra20-pcie"' where <chip> is tegra30, tegra132, ...
"
I take this to mean that using wildcards to denote an SoC family on
which the same IP is present is okay to do. With that understanding, I
think using ti,da8xx-cppi41 is fine too. Although I have no objections
against using the more specific ti,da830-cppi41
