You can do this from userland as root by opening /dev/io:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
#include <machine/cpufunc.h>

int
main(int argc, char **argv)
{
        FILE *f;

        f = fopen("/dev/io", "r");

        outl(0xe11c, 0x120);
        outl(0xe124, 0xd0602004);
        outl(0xe134, 0x18600020);

        outl(0xe11c, 0x130);
