For other files, I've used a script (see below) to do this, it probably
works with the OSS files as well, although I have not tried yet.

Of course, another option for OSS device drivers would be to
remove the entire driver ;). Either way, my feeling is that the
OSS drivers are not stopping anyone from building a kernel without
CONFIG_BKL once we have introduced that symbol and made the drivers
depend on it.
