I checked both on system and HMC properties , there is no usb device attached.
[root@c57f1ju0204 ~]# ls -l /sys/bus/pci/devices/
total 0

Thanks...

Well if it does not have usb than I think that there is no problem. Lsusb tries to initialize libusb and it failed because there is no usb, this looks like correct behavior.
