The following seems to sort things out without the need for a revert

diff --git a/arch/arm/Kconfig b/arch/arm/Kconfig
index 710f171f87..e8968d61cd 100644
--- a/arch/arm/Kconfig
+++ b/arch/arm/Kconfig
@@ -640,7 +640,7 @@ config ARCH_MVEBU
        select SPL_DM_SPI if SPL
        select SPL_DM_SPI_FLASH if SPL
        select SPL_TIMER if SPL
-       select TIMER
+       select TIMER if !ARM64
        select OF_CONTROL
        select OF_SEPARATE
        select SPI

I'll include it in the series I'm about to send.
