If AMD-TEE Trusted OS isn't updated, load_cmd.return_origin value will be 0.

load_cmd.return_origin will have non-zero value only if AMD-TEE Trusted OS on
the platform has the necessary ABI change.

At present, without this patch, arg->ret_origin is 0 and even with this patch
it will be 0 unless AMD-TEE Trusted OS on the platform has the ABI update. So,
this is not an incompatible ABI change.

Yes, that's correct - older APUs will not have updated AMD-TEE Trusted OS.

Okay, I will add a Fixes tag and post v2 patch.
