Those two chip selects are actually a representation of a external
decoding logic based on what we use on our board. Even though it the
NOR controller only supports one single chip select I wanted to give
an example on how one could create more chip-selects with an external
logic and what it would look like in the device tree representation.

I realize that the bindings should include above explanation or
something similar.
