Hi,
unless you implement application image verification, there's no connection between remote update and flash loader IP in your design. Respectively they can be treated as separate design modules. User interface to remote update IP is at least required to trigger reconfig, optionally to set parameters like watchdog operation. For serial flash interface, you can choose between ASMI ASMI II and generic serial flash IP.
Choice depends on used flash and intended application interface.
