This is still not written as a proper specification, you should not
give "examples"
but give a complete list of the available options. You could write it like:

Must contain "andestech,nds32v3" as the most generic value, in addition to
one of the following identifiers for a particular CPU core:
         "andestech,n13"
         "andestech,n15"
         "andestech,d15"
         "andestech,n10"
         "andestech,d10"

It might be helpful to also list all other existing nds32v3 cores,
even those that the
current Linux port does not support them.
