153: Update exceptions.md r=korken89 a=flip111

> You'll see that a load operation (ldr r0, [r0] ) caused the exception and that the value of the register r0 was 0x3fff_fffe at that time.

You can not see the value of the register from the disassembly. Therefor:

> This value matches the r0 field of ExceptionFrame.

`This` points to nothing. Nothing "matches". With the information given in the book the value can _only_ be seen in the ExceptionFrame.

You'll see that a load operation (`ldr r0, [r0]` ) caused the exception and that
the value of the register `r0` was `0x3fff_fffe` at that time. This value
matches the `r0` field of `ExceptionFrame`.
You can lookup the value of the program counter `0x0800094a` in the dissassembly.
You'll see that a load operation (`ldr r0, [r0]` ) caused the exception.
The `r0` field of `ExceptionFrame` will tell you the value of register `r0`
was `0x3fff_fffe` at that time.
