I don't think that belongs in Linux/Documentation since it's specific to RedHat. Apart from the "which UHCI" confusion, you could use the /etc/rc.d/init.d/hotplug script to start up USB. (That's not part of RedHat though; they use kudzu to promote what seems like more of a static config model.)
I have an RH 7.3 system that has this ... though I had to tweak it by hand since their setup stored multiple entries for some drivers, and didn't put EHCI first (so devices on USB 2.0 adapters would start out with one driver, disconnect, then reconnect using the "right" host controller):
alias usb-controller ehci-hcd alias usb-controller1 ohci-hcd alias usb-controller2 uhci-hcd alias usb-controller3 usb-ohci alias usb-controller4 usb-uhci
Note that the "uhci-hcd" would be "usb-uhci-hcd" if you're trying to experiment with that version on the 2.5 kernel, if you're not doing manual rmmod/modprobe (which I usually end up doing).
That causes silly boot messages for the hardware or drivers you may not have, but works reliably/correctly for all current kernels.
