[olsr-dev] "struct in_addr v4" vs "olsr_u32_t v4"

[Andreas Tønnesen]

I only used this for "easier" access to the IP address basc in the IPv4 only
days. That means olsr_u32_t was used all over the place before I added IPv6
support where the in*_addr came into play.
Anyways, I guess in_addr is more correct.
