In the past this sort of thing has been done in two different ways, 
depending on whether or not OHCI support was previously configurable.

In cases where it was, we kept the old Kconfig entry and made it select
USB_OHCI_HCD_PLATFORM, but added a notice that the entry was now
deprecated.  For example, in drivers/usb/host/Kconfig see the entry for
USB_OHCI_ATH79.

In cases where support was always present (i.e., not configurable), we
added an entry for USB_OHCI_HCD_PLATFORM to the platform's defconfig
file.  For example, see arch/arm/configs/marzen_defconfig.  This is
probably what you want to do.
