How about using runtime configuration over using kconfig for this, so
the same kernel config can be used on different machines. Something
device tree based?

Another option is to use the netlink handler to send the OEM command
from userspace. Eddie has worked on this for an IBM machine, and I've
asked him to post those changes. I would prefer the kernel option
though.
