-19 means -ENODEV. I suppose CONFIG_SPL_OF_CONTROL is enabled. You can
check the device tree used for SPL in your build directory -
spl/u-boot-spl.dtb.

>From the debugging it looks like you have no SPI flash devices.

You can check chromebook_jerry which uses this feature. See this node:

&spi2 {
   status = "okay";
   u-boot,dm-pre-reloc;

   spi_flash: spiflash at 0 {
      u-boot,dm-pre-reloc;
      compatible = "spidev", "spi-flash";
      spi-max-frequency = <20000000>; /* Reduce for Dediprog em100 pro */
      reg = <0>;
   };
};

Regards,
Simon
