Ok so you'll have to make up a "workaround" in prom_init that looks for
OHCI's in the device-tree and disable them.

Check if the OHCI node has some existing f-code words you can use for
that with "dev /path-to-ohci words" in OF for example. If not, you may
need to use the low level register accessors. Use OF client interface
"interpret" to run forth code from C.

Cheers,
Ben.
