757 doesn't have I/B ailerons either, the wing is stiffened to prevent aileron reversal, same on the A330/340. Which is usually why the ride is a little rougher.

I think the A380 gets around the aileron reversal with some clever manipulation of the 3 O/B ailerons as they move independently to each other at times, which has been discussed in the tech forums.
