You have a mix of "ALTR" and "altr" prefixes. The general recommendation
is to use lower-case letters, which is also what is used on ARM socfpga,
and what is documented in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/vendor-prefixes.txt
for Altera.

Are these all synthesized devices, or is there also some hardwired
logic? It often makes sense to split out the reusable parts into
a separate .dtsi file that gets included by every implementation.

A few style comments:
- no whitespace in the after '<' or before '>
- put each entry into its own '<...>' group.
- lower-case characters for hex digits
- The ranges should reflect what the bus actually translates,
which is typically not individual bytes but rather whole
address ranges.
- sort numerically.
The above could look like
ranges = <0x00000000 0x08000000 0x00010000>,
<0x00400000 0x08400000 0x00001000>;

Does each one of these have a binding document in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings?
I've looked only at the tse binding, which you seem to be
violating in a few places:
- compatible string is "ALTR,tse-1.0", not "altr,tse-1.0"

- wrong order, missing "tx_desc" and "rx_desc" entries

address-bits is not documented

ALTR,mii-id is not documented, and required "phy-addr" is missing.

Linking in the dtb file is really against the point of device trees.
You should require boot loaders to pass the dtb seperately.

These are hardcoded constants. If there is no way to identify the
hardware from looking at the registers, better don't fill these at
all.

Never use IS_ERR_OR_NULL().
If an interface can return an error code, you should rely on
never seeing NULL, or treating it as a valid pointer.

This function can get merged into nios2_soc_device_init.
