Another approach could be to maintain shadow pages in Flash. At power-up, you can test for equality.
a common approach, but at power-up, you do not "test for equality" you copy the flash to RAM

Another strategy might be to 'alloc' fresh eeprom until you run out. Then garbage collect.
a.k.a. a "walking write" you create a struct with an entry being a flag, if 'Flag" is 0xff you have found an unused struct.
