Can you please explain it here before sending a new version?

Well, that doesn't make any sense, the second write to
EBU_ADDR_SEL(reg) overrides the first one, meaning that nand_pa is
actually never written to ADDR_SEL(reg).

If you want to setup both CS, and the address written in EBU_ADDR_SEL(x)
is really related to the nand_pa address, then retrieve resources for
all CS ranges. If it's not related, please explain what those
EBU_MEM_BASE_CS_X values encode.
