Ioremap'd memory is always uncached on ARM. But you need to be careful if you
use this on "real" (ie non-I/O) memory, especially on the EBSA-285 -- ioremap
adds in the IO_FUDGE_FACTOR and you will need to subtract it out again.
Alternatively you could use __ioremap but that might not buy you very much.
