Judging from the file name virt-v7.c,
you are thinkig this file is specific to ARMv7, aren't you?

If so, why don't you move this file
to arch/arm/cpu/armv7/ ?

CPUID_ARM_TIMER_MASK
CPUID_ARM_TIMER_SHIFT

I think these macro names are vague.
There are Generic Timer, Global Timer, Private Timer etc.


Unlike other parts, the care for Cortex-A9 is missing here.
To be more generic, I'd like to suggest to allow Non-secure access
to Global/Private timers before switching to non-secure state.


How about like this for armv7_switch_nonsec function?


    /* check whether the CPU supports the security extensions */
    reg = read_id_pfr1();
    if ((reg & 0xF0) == 0)
            return HYP_ERR_NO_SEC_EXT;

    if ((reg & CPUID_ARM_TIMER_MASK) == 1U << CPUID_ARM_TIMER_SHIFT)
            set_generic_timer_frequency();
    else
            /* Allow Non-secure access to Global/Private timers */
            writel(0xfff, periph_base + SCU_SNSAC);



For more info about SCU Non-secure Access Control (SNSAC) Register,
please refer Cortex A9 mpcore TRM.  page 2-11

I am not sure this code is really necessary.

Because your are setting all available interrupts to Group1 just below,
I think we don't need to do this in secure state.
