regarding the memory type configured when we call ioremap for mapping a region

<DIV><SPAN class=356234801-09072010><FONT face=Arial size=2>After examining 2nd
level page descriptor, I see that the memory type configured for ioremapped
region (as per TEX[2:0]=1 and CB=0) is "Outer and Inner Non-cacheable - Normal".
Is this correct observation? I thought the ioremap would set memory type as
one of the "Device". </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
