Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: Set default hoplimit as zero.

From: Li RongQing <roy.qing.li@...il.com>

Commit a02e4b7dae4551(Demark default hoplimit as zero) only changes the
hoplimit checking condition and default value in ip6_dst_hoplimit, not
zeros all hoplimit default value.

Keep the zeroing ip6_template_metrics[RTAX_HOPLIMIT - 1] to force it as 
const, cause as a37e6e344910(net: force dst_default_metrics to const 
section)
