The spec is completly clear on this:

>From 5.14.1.4:

"If more than 1024 namespaces have changed attributes since the last time the
 log page was read, the first entry in the log page shall be set to FFFFFFFFh
 and the remainder of the list shall be zero-filled."

Once we don't know what changed we'll have to do a full rescan using
Identify.
