Keeping PIO mode code as is and adding DMA mode will have redundant code for header generation and msg complete timeout sections.
Also in existing PIO mode implementation, TX FIFO is filled as soon as the word is ready but for DMA mode need to put all msg bytes along with header together to send thru DMA.
So created common buffer to perform PIO/DMA to reduce redundancy.
