It's not accepted.

No, number of chip select for SPI 1 is 2. AM33xx TRM says

TRM section
24.1.2 Unsupported McSPI Features

Feature 			Reason
Chip selects 2 and 3	Not pinned out

Also you can see soc pin outs.

Yes.

You can see register offset for am33xx (it is defined at offset 0x100).
Hence offset is required in am33xx.
