No. Maybe.

No - a bank of flash memory is what gets accesses using one  specific
chip select line.

Maybe - it depens how your flash is organised - 4 chips can  be  just
one bank of memory, for example if you use 4 chips of 8 bit to form a
32 bit wode bus.

These are the base addresses for the first and the second flash  bank
as  used  by the preliminary mappings. See the README, section System
Initialization.

See the README.
