This patch already sets REQ_F_NOWAIT for IO_URING_F_NONBLOCK flag.
Here:
+ if (ioucmd && (ioucmd->flags & IO_URING_F_NONBLOCK)) {
+ rq_flags |= REQ_NOWAIT;
+ blk_flags |= BLK_MQ_REQ_NOWAIT;
+ }
+ req = nvme_alloc_request(q, cmd, blk_flags, rq_flags);

And if -EAGAIN goes to io_uring, we don't try to setup the worker and
instead return the error to userspace for retry.
Here is the relevant fragment from Patch 3:

+ ioucmd->flags |= issue_flags;
+ ret = file->f_op->async_cmd(ioucmd);
+ /* queued async, consumer will call io_uring_cmd_done() when complete */
+ if (ret == -EIOCBQUEUED)
+ return 0;
+ io_uring_cmd_done(ioucmd, ret);

Same as above.

As pointed above in the snippet, any error except -EIOCBQUEUED is just
posted in CQE during submission itself. So I do not see why -EAGAIN
should cause trouble, at least in this patchset.
FWIW- I tested by forcefully returning -EAGAIN from nvme, and also tag
saturation case (which also returns -EAGAIN) and did not see that sort
of issue.

Please take this series for a spin.
