No.  As I said elsewhere in this thread, the USB OHCI chip is not accessible
until other board-specific initialisation has happened.  This is done via an
initcall.  Unfortunately, moving usb_init() back into init/main.c will mean
that USB is again initialised before any initcalls, which means for these
boards USB will be non-functional without additional changes over and above
just moving usb_init().

I hope this helps you understand the problem.
