Few minor comments:
=================
1.

+ {
+ TransactionId xid_tmp = lfirst_xid(list_nth_cell(subxactlist, i));
+
+ if (xid_tmp == subxid)
+ {
+ RollbackToSavepoint(spname);
+ CommitTransactionCommand();
+ subxactlist = list_truncate(subxactlist, i + 1);

I find that there is always one element extra in the list after
rollback to savepoint. Don't we need to truncate the list to 'i' as
shown in the diff below?

2.
* Note that If it's an empty sub-transaction then we will not find
* the subxid here.

If in above comment seems to be in wrong case. Anyway, I have slightly
modified it as you can see in the diff below.
