Mental note:
The patch series with the pathspec attrs on top of this series makes this
non-static and exposes the invalid_attr_name for wider use, so I'll resolve
the merge conflict accordingly.

ok, I agree with this one.

This makes sense, too, so the caller can just collect the error message and
attach its own flair to it, i.e. another message to explain the context about
wrong attributes.
