Regardless on whether the bootloader is locked or not, no port is possible for a device which has undocumented HW.
Ports to Android-based devices are easy because there is existing linux kernel with working HW adaptation. Same goes for N900 and N9.
For all Ashas and Lumias, as well as for example iOS and BB devices this is not possible, ever.

"Ever" is a strong word. For example, iOS hardware is undocumented, but it has been reverse-engineered to the point that there is an Android port for certain iPhone models. Theoretically that same work could be used to port Meego or SailfishOS.
But as for the Asha series, forget it. The hardware is not worth it.
