The own OGM check is currently misplaced and can lead to the following issues:
For one thing we might receive an aggregated OGM from a neighbor node which has our own OGM in the first place. We would then not only skip our own OGM but erroneously also any other, following OGM in the aggregate.
For another, we might receive an OGM aggregate which has our own OGM in a place other then the first one. Then we would wrongly not skip this OGM, leading to populating the orginator and gateway table with ourself.
The latter seems to not only be a cosmetic issue, but there were reports that this causes issues with various subsystems of batman-adv, too. For instance there were reports about issues with DAT and either disabling DAT or aggregation seemed to solve it.
Fixing these issues by applying the own OGM check not on the first OGM in an aggregate but for each OGM in an aggregate instead.
