Since commitd4ead6b34b("net/ipv6: move metrics from dst to rt6_info"), ipv6 metrics are shared and refcounted. rt6_set_from() assigns the rt->from pointer and increases the refcount on from's metrics. This reference is never released. Introduce the fib6_metrics_release() helper and use it to release the metrics.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
