Sorry for this, have changed my mailer settings.

My mistake values of these register would be for said case are:
QUADSPI_SFA1AD - 0x400_0000
QUADSPI_SFA2AD - 0x800_0000
QUADSPI_SFB1AD - 0xC00_0000
QUADSPI_SFB2AD - 0x1000_0000

i.e. as per controller each register is having the Top address for serial flash connected at A1/A2/B1/B2 respectively.

What this table says that for TOP_ADDR_MEMA1 defines the top address for flash connected at A1 and any address space between TOP_ADDR_MEMA1 and QSPI_AMBA_BASE will be routed to Serial Flash A1.
In my example case TOP_ADDR_MEMA1 is 0x400_0000
If assign value to SFAR register is "0 + 2 * ->ahb_buf_size", then this would lie in access range of Serial Flash A1 and access happens to A1 flash whereas we want access to A2 flash.

For access of serial flash A2, any address space access between TOP_ADDR_MEMA2 and TOP_ADDR_MEMA1 would be routed to serial flash A2.
Thus to access A2 flash, SFAR would be in range from 0x400_0000 and 0x800_0000
