This is a single patch set, so the details you have in the cover letter
should be in this description here. Also, please just 'ip' commands in
the patch description; 'route' command is a dinosaur that needs to be
retired.

Drop the 'accept' part; ra_defrtr_metric is sufficiently long. Since the
value is not from the RA, it is not really about accepting data from the RA.

route metric is a u32, so these ranges should not be needed. 'ip route
list' shows metric as a positive number only.

Alignment problem, but I think this can be moved above to the
description and changed to something like 'only takes affect if
accept_ra_defrtr' is enabled.

net coding style is reverse xmas tree - ie., longest to shortest. yes,
this function is old school, but new entries can be added in the right
place. Since you set before use, the initialization to 0 is not
necessary. And u32 for consistency.
