I am not familiar with this timer, but your commit description implies
it is specific to ARMv7.

If so, it looks like it should go to arch/arm/cpu/armv7/ .
Is this right?

This is for arch timer implemented in ARM Cortex-A15 which is ARMv7.
I believe the same arch timer is in ARMv8. So, it is not specific to
ARMv7 only. The commit description mentioned only ARMv7 because the
driver was designed and tested on ARMv7.

If we want to apply the arch_timer.c to armv8,  the get_ticks() function should be modified
due to mrrc instuction. 
Furthermore, armv8 now make use of timer infrastructure of lib/time.c. 
Only get_tbclk() and timer_read_counter() are architecture specific and declared in generic_timer.c.
We'd better construct a common arch timer structure across arm platform.

The v6 of the series just posted has moved the arch_timer.c to 
arch/arm/cpu/armv7 folder
as requested by you.
