How about NIPQUAD and NIPQUAD_FMT (for IPv4):
http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.27.6/include/linux/kernel.h#L324
http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.27.6/include/linux/kernel.h#L319

Example on how to use:
http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.27.6/net/ipv4/ipconfig.c#L1184

printk("my address is " NIPQUAD_FMT "\n", NIPQUAD(ic_myaddr));
