As you saw yourself, there's nowhere in arla or xfs where ECONNABORTED
should be returned.  And looking around int the Linux source it only
seems to happen in inet_accept and ip_fw_ctl, neither of which should
apply here.  It could however, be a VNOVOL error that doesn't get
translated properly.  Can you turn on arla debugging (with `fs
arladebug all') and then try accessing some file that gives you these
errors?  That way we might be able to figure out where the error is
occuring.
