The sstc_timer selftest is used to validate Sstc timer functionality in a guest, which sets up periodic timer interrupts and check the basic interrupt status upon its receipt.

This KVM selftest was ported from aarch64 arch_timer and tested with Linux v6.5-rc3 on a Qemu riscv64 virt machine.

Would it be possible to extract the ARM bits from arch_timer and make the bulk of the test common to ARM and RISC-V? At a glance, there is quite a bit of copy+paste.
