From: Javier Cardona <javier@xxxxxxxxxxx> For forwarded frames, we save the precursor address in addr1 in case it needs to be used to send a Path Error. mesh_path_discard_frame, however, was using addr2 instead of addr1 to send Path Error frames, so correct that and also make the comment regarding this more clear.
