io_submit with silly values/pointers

Hi,
'trinity' generated an io_submit call with a ludicrous large
'nr' of requests, the result being strace sat there just printing out
{...}, for nearly ever since the data didn't exist.
Is the right thing to 'break' rather than 'continue' if either
of the umove calls fail? The alternative way is to break
if the iocbs read fails but allow individualy broken iocb reads.
I'm not sure which is more sane - you could have a real call
that fails for another reason before hitting the bad iocb.
Dave
