This patch is conceptually wrong.
I think you're misunderstanding the darft.
ipv6RouterAdvertTable contains information used to create router
advertisements on router. Not on host.
Patch should be rejected.
From draft-ietf-ipv6-rfc2011-update-05.txt:

3.2.9. Router Advertisement Table
This table contains the non-routing information that an IPv6 router
would use in constructing a router advertisement message. It does not
contain information about the prefixes or other routing specific
information that the router might advertise. The router should acquire
such information from either the routing tables or from some routing
table specific MIB.
This table is only required for IPv6 router entities.
