Subject: [PATCH net] net/ipv6: Remove extra call to ip6_convert_metrics for multipath case

From: [email-masked]
Date: Wed, 26 Sep 2018 17:35:14 -0700

From: David Ahern <[email-masked]>

The change to move metrics from the dst to rt6_info moved the call
to ip6_convert_metrics from ip6_route_add to ip6_route_info_create. In
doing so it makes the call in ip6_route_info_append redundant and
actually leaks the metrics installed as part of the ip6_route_info_create.
Remove the now unnecessary call.

Fixes: d4ead6b34b67f ("net/ipv6: move metrics from dst to rt6_info")
