Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: do not leave garbage in rt->fib6_metrics

In case ip_fib_metrics_init() returns an error, we better
rewrite rt->fib6_metrics with &dst_default_metrics so that
we do not crash later in ip_fib_metrics_put()

Fixes: 767a2217533f ("net: common metrics init helper for FIB entries")
