It seems to me that the rtl8019 driver was never updated according to
the eth_device stucture (I think it was the introduction of
CONFIG_NET_MULTI).

Network drivers must not expose global functions, and instead of that
they must set their callbacks in a struct eth_device and register itself
with eth_register().

Anyway, I do not find any board in actual u-boot code using this driver.
It seems to me like dead code...

Best regards,
