Use NIPQUAD, as in the example below:

        printk(KERN_DEBUG "dccp rx: packet=%s, "
                          "source=%u.%u.%u.%u@%d, "
                          "dest=%u.%u.%u.%u@%d\n",
               dccp_packet_name(dh->dccph_type),
               NIPQUAD(skb->nh.iph->saddr),
               ntohs(dh->dccph_sport),
               NIPQUAD(skb->nh.iph->daddr),
               ntohs(dh->dccph_dport));
