I think you're making a frequently made mistake concerning module
initialisation.

Having code initialised by subsys_initcall() (or indeed any other level)
does not preclude it being a module:

#ifndef MODULE
...
#define subsys_initcall(fn)             __define_initcall(fn, 4)
...
#else /* MODULE */
...
#define subsys_initcall(fn)             module_init(fn)
...
#endif

So, subsys_initcall() automagically becomes module_init() when built
as a module.  There's no need to change anything here.
