Banking RAM is most simply done by physically wiring RAMs in parallel and routing Chip Select/Chip Enable pins individually from GPIO. People were doing it in PDAs until late 00s. Also, I/O ports on these old machines and CPUs up until switch to PCI Express were philosophically just DRAM slots in alternate shapes, so RAMs could be more or less simply installed and RAMs on adapter cards just accessed. This is also technically applicable to PCIe from various perspectives other than performance.
