The TS7250 requires an extra option to the open("/dev/mem".. system call. 
The flags parameter must be O_RDWR|O_SYNC (not O_RDWR).   Unless O_SYNC is 
specified, Linux arbitrarily decides whether or not an uncacheable MMU 
mapping is required based on the X86 specific notion of where the highest 
block of physical SDRAM is located.   The TS-7250 w/64MB SDRAM has a block 
of memory in a high address which leads Linux to believe everything below it 
in physical space is also SDRAM and may also be mapped as cacheable.
