Yes, using subsys_initcall() is acceptable, a number of i2c bus drivers
for embedded platforms do that already (i2c-pxa and i2c-omap.c for
example.)

> There is a requirement in Moorestown that certain drivers need I2C driver loaded before those drivers. To achieve this, is subsys_initcall() the only way?

I can't say whether this is the only way given than you mentioned no
detail about the requirements, but this is one possible way for sure.
