Please don't mix that in the same patch, do it in a preparatory patch.
That makes reviewing much easier.

It's cleaner to do two qe_iowrite16be to &bd->status and &bd->length,
that avoids the casting altogether.

Yeah, and this is why. Who can actually keep track of where that bit
ends up being set with that casting going on. Please use
qe_iowrite16be() with an appropriately modified constant to the
appropriate field instead of these games.

And if the hardware doesn't support 16 bit writes, the definition of
struct qe_bd is wrong and should have a single __be32 status_length
field, with appropriate accessors defined.

Same.

Same.

Are the tdcr, rdcr, tenc, renc fields actually set anywhere (the same
for the diag and mode, but word-grepping for those give way too many
false positives)? They seem to be a somewhat pointless split out of the
bitfields of gumr_l, and not populated anywhere?. That's not directly
related to this patch, of course, but getting rid of them first (if they
are indeed completely unused) might make the sparse cleanup a little
simpler.
