I have updated DT bindings in linux v3 series. Please check again.

Actually, "mtimer,no-64bit-mmio" is more appropriate because
all registers of MTIMER are 64-bits wide so by default RV64
systems should support 64-bit MMIO for MTIMER. In fact, most
existing RV64 systems do support 64-bit MMIO for MTIMER.
