net: remove NULL-pointer net parameter in ip_metrics_convert

When I was doing some experiments, I found that when using the first
parameter, namely, struct net, in ip_metrics_convert() always triggers NULL
pointer crash. Then I digged into this part, realizing that we can remove
this one due to its uselessness.
