Thanks for the details.
EAGAIN is not a documented return from listxattr,
and it seems like the cifs client should not let that leak.
Perhaps the kernel needs another change along the lines of:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=6efa994e35a
(That was included in v5.18).

Perhaps something to ask at linux-cifs@HIDDEN ?

If this is a common enough issue then it might be appropriate for us to handle,
but given the current info, ls is just informing you of an actual issue on your system.

thanks,
Pádraig

After upgrading coreutils from version 9.3 to 9.4, "ls -l" shows error 
messages, if the files or directories are in a cifs/smb3 mounted directory.

Example:
/mnt/cifstest here is mounted with "mount -t cifs -o username=myuser 
//192.168.1.2/all /mnt/cifstest/". The server is a Samba 4.19.2 server. 
The kernel is version 6.1.71.

# ls -l /mnt/cifstest/
ls: /mnt/cifstest/: Resource temporarily unavailable
ls: /mnt/cifstest/opt: Resource temporarily unavailable
ls: /mnt/cifstest/dev: Resource temporarily unavailable
ls: /mnt/cifstest/var: Resource temporarily unavailable

"ls -l" from coreutils 9.3 does not show any errors.

Probably it is not just the error message. "dmesg -w" shows several 
errors after executing "ls -l":

[17563.999109] smb2_reconnect: 3 callbacks suppressed
[17563.999113] CIFS: VFS: reconnect tcon failed rc = -11
[17564.160117] CIFS: VFS: reconnect tcon failed rc = -11
[17564.192244] CIFS: VFS: reconnect tcon failed rc = -11
[17564.223303] CIFS: VFS: reconnect tcon failed rc = -11
[17564.256080] CIFS: VFS: reconnect tcon failed rc = -11
[17564.287887] CIFS: VFS: reconnect tcon failed rc = -11
[17564.410323] CIFS: VFS: reconnect tcon failed rc = -11
[17564.442095] CIFS: VFS: reconnect tcon failed rc = -11
[17564.474065] CIFS: VFS: reconnect tcon failed rc = -11
[17564.569435] CIFS: VFS: reconnect tcon failed rc = -11

I debugged this problem a bit. The changes in 
coreutils-9.4/lib/file-has-acl.c:file_has_acl are probably responsible 
for the errors. The system call listxttr produces the error message 
"Resource temporarily unavailable". I could not find the reasons for 
error messages shown with "dmesg".

The listxattr.c test program in the manual page (man listxattr) shows 
the following output:

# ./listxattr /mnt/cifstest/
listxattr: Resource temporarily unavailable

Work-around are to downgrade to coreutils 9.3 or not to use the "-l" 
option for ls.
