Thank you for your patch. There is something to discuss/improve.

Don't store drivers in arm directory. See:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-devicetree/YkJa1oLSEP8R4U6y@robh.at.kernel.org/

Isn't this a network offload engine? If yes, then probably it should be
in "net/".

Generic node name, "wed" is specific. Maybe "network-offload"? Or
"network-accelerator"? You probably know better what this device does,
so maybe come with some generic name?

The same in DTS patch.

The bindings themself look ok.

Krzysztof
