Snoops router and override flags for Neighbor Advertisement in order to use it in NA creation. This information is stored in a extra member in the dat entry. This is done separately from normal data, because data is used for DHT comparison, while this flags can change their value over time.
Ok, therefore the extra member is not part of the "key" ( that we wrongly called data till now), but it is part of the "data" (that was a mac address only till now).
I think that at this point it is better to generalise the data part too. We are not storing MAC addresses only anymore.
For IPv4 we have data = { mac_addr } For IPv6 now we have data = { mac_addr, extra_stuff }.
(and in the future we might have something else). I thought about not generalising the data field, but if we are going to introduce new (and IPv6 specific) fields than we have to do it anyway.
I think that having a generic void *data and data_size where we can store the struct we want is much cleaner.
What do you think? you think it is a too big work? In this case we could leave as you implemented it here and generalise later...Actually you "only" have to bring the mac_addr field inside the extra_data and rename extra_data to data.
Comments: For now router and override are initialized to the values used in most case scenarios. This can be changed easily if we want to avoid the NA creation until we get the flags.
when do we get this flags? when we create the entry don't we get the flags too from the snooped packet? (sorry but I don't entirely know the ND protocol).
Also, the router flag can be calculated easily using the Router Advertisement. Any node that sends that package is a router, so there isn't a lot of snooping in that case. This feature can be added easily. The problem is that I have no other idea how to get the override flag, with the exception of the current implemented mechanism.

There are other style issues in this patch, but they mostly concern what I already pointed out in the other comments.
Remember to always check your patch with checkpatch.pl --strict in order to find problems before sending the patches.
But overall is a very good job! I think we are close to the real patch series ;)
Cheers,
