Subject: drivers/platform/olpc/olpc-ec.c: initialise earlier

Being a low-level component, various drivers (e.g.  olpc-battery) assume
that it is ok to communicate with the OLPC Embedded Controller during
probe.  Therefore the OLPC EC driver must be initialised before other
drivers try to use it.  This was the case until it was recently moved out
of arch/x86 and restructured.

Use arch_initcall so that olpc-ec is readied earlier, matching the
previous behaviour.  Fixes various drivers such as olpc-battery and
olpc-xo1-sci.
