Minor nitpick here: if ctrlr->nr_changed_ns is exactly
NVME_MAX_CHANGED_NAMESPACES and the new nsid is already in the list,
this will skip down to the 0xffffffff case below, even though it could
have just left the list as-is.

I don't know if this is a problem in practice; reporting 0xffffffff is
probably always safe, since the host will presumably treat that as
"rescan everything".
