5.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Sven Eckelmann sven@narfation.org
commit 548b0c5de7619ef53bbde5590700693f2f6d2a56 upstream.
An OGMv1 and OGMv2 packet receive processing were not only limited by the number of bytes in the received packet but also by the nodes maximum aggregation packet size limit. But this limit is relevant for TX and not for RX. It must not be enforced by batadv_(i)v_ogm_aggr_packet to avoid loss of information in case of a different limit for sender and receiver.
This has a minor side effect for B.A.T.M.A.N. IV because the batadv_iv_ogm_aggr_packet is also used for the preprocessing for the TX. But since the aggregation code itself will not allow more than BATADV_MAX_AGGREGATION_BYTES bytes, this check was never triggering (in this context) prior of removing it.
