CPSW driver and dmtimer clarification

Are the dmtimers used by the Linux CPSW driver solely for the work around for AM335X Errata Advisory 1.0.9? On newer silicon that is not affected by this bug (rev 2.0 and 2.1), is it possible to use dmtimers 5 and 6 assuming some hacking at the CPSW driver?  I wasn't clear if the pacing timer mentioned by the TRM is internal to the ethernet subsystem or if a system timer is required to provide this functionality.
