You could just batch the endian conversion too:
u32 flags = DES3_OWN | RDES3_BUFFER1_VALID_ADDR;
if (!disable_rx_ic)
flags |= RDES3_INT_ON_COMPLETION_EN;
p->desc3 |= cpu_to_le32(flags);

And likewise here, and that would likely squash the sparse warning,
since you would not be assigning an 'u32' field to a __le32 field anymore.
