ndp: don't trigger IPv6 ping when neighbor entry is invalid

A ping for an IPv6 address not present on an interface will generate a
netlink neighbor message with as status fail; launching again an IPv6
ping on other proxy enabled interfaces will create a cascade effect of
netlink neighbor messages with as status fail which in its turn will
again trigger an IPv6 ping on proxy enabled interfaces ...
