Hi Ophir,
Some small comments, please see bellow

This comment is strange, it always returns an rte_be32_t no matter what.

Is not the comment redundant with the return type of the function?

((uint32_t)-1) == ((rte_be32_t)-1) like (uin32t_t)0 == (rte_be32_t)0.
Why do you need this extra conversion?

The "big endian" in the comment is redundant.

The comment is also strange, the return type does not change in the mean time.
