Subject: [PATCH 08/17] batman-adv: Only use int up and down gw representation

It is not save to provide memory for an int and then cast the pointer to
it to long*. It is better to standardize the up and down gateway
bandwith representation to simple ints and only use long inside
conversation routines.
