lpc32xx_check_uid() and lpc32xx_pm_init() are arch_initcalls that poke
LPC32xx-only registers. Since the multiplatform conversion they also
run on other ARCH_MULTI_V5 boards where access faults e.g. on versatile:

Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address f4004130
PC is at lpc32xx_check_uid+0x2c/0x9c

Drop the arch_initcall() registrations and call both functions directly
from lpc3250_machine_init(), the machine's .init_machine hook.
The calls are placed in link order (common.c, pm.c, phy3250.c) to
keep their previous relative ordering.

v2:
- Rather than guarding the two arch_initcalls, drop the initcalls
entirely and call both functions from lpc3250_machine_init(), which
is already guarded properly. (Suggested by Arnd.)
