Notes:

For Device Memory Write transaction, the HostAddress[63:0] is referring to host memory (Source) while DeviceAddress[63:0] is referring to device memory(Destination).

For Device Memory Read transaction, the HostAddress[63:0] is referring to host memory (Destination) while DeviceAddress[63:0] is referring to device memory (Source).

Only DWORD-aligned transfer is supported.
