Sowmini reported that a recent commit broke prefix routes for linklocal
addresses. The newly added modify_prefix_route is attempting to add a
new prefix route when the ifp priority does not match the route metric
however the check needs to account for the default priority. In addition,
the route add fails because the route already exists, and then the delete
removes the one that exists. Flip the order to do the delete first.
Fixes: 8308f3ff1753 ("net/ipv6: Add support for specifying metric of connected routes")

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.
