man PKGBUILD:

 Additional architecture-specific sources can be added by appending an
 underscore and the architecture name e.g., source_x86_64=(). There
 must be a corresponding integrity array with checksums, e.g.
 md5sums_x86_64=().

md5sums_extra looks like an architecture-specific checksum to
makepkg/updpkgsums.
