I'd probably take a patch to do this in debugfs but I don't think it is appropriate to do this in sysfs. Writing to the registers outside the control of the drivers can seriously interfere with their operation and confuse user space - it's something you can get away with if you know what you're doing but it's not something that should be available as a standard, advertised interface. There's also the possibility of the driver trampling over any settings made with this interface which wouldn't be helpful either.
