Both use CE0 ... it's just that a bit of external logic morphs
different chunks of the CE0 address space into selects for the
two halves of that 2 GB chip.  Sheet 12 of DM355 EVM schematics
shows U4 and U5 combining CE0 and A12 to produce nNANDCE and
nNANDCE2 ... :)

I'd think the normal way to treat that would be to package it
as two separate NAND devices ... which, in a sense, it is.

Now, if you look at sheet 4 of the schematics you'll notice that
a LED, DS22, is hooked up to GPIO61 which is glued to A7 (and
ISTR must not be unmuxed).  If you were really clever, I'd hope
you would be able to make that serve as an activity light, to
show when either NAND bank was being accessed.  ;)
