Please include v7M in the name. System timer sounds very generic. This
is the only timer architecturally defined IIRC, so perhaps just
"armv7m_systick".

Same here.

You may want to consider supporting "clock-frequency" here too. In
more simple chips you may just have fixed clocks and may want to run a
kernel with COMMON_CLK disabled for size savings.

This should be "systick: timer at e000e010".

Same for your dts file.
