The function name suggests this is more of a status checking function
than one that does actual work. I'd suggest something more like
xfs_attr_trans_roll() based on the implementation.

I also find the semantics of this function a little confusing. How would
a caller distinguish between error == -EAGAIN as passed in from the
caller vs. error being set by one of the transaction processing calls?

Thoughts on my comments on this on the previous version?

I think I also mentioned the tail of this function might sit better in
the caller..
