Ok apparently there was a failure with my built-in binary which i
didn't notice. I did a full rebuilt and checked the elf this time :)

Built as an earlyTA my error now is:
ftpm-tee firmware:optee: ftpm_tee_probe:tee_client_open_session
failed, err=ffff3024 (translates to TEE_ERROR_TARGET_DEAD)
Since you tested it on real hardware i guess you tried both
module/built-in. Which TEE version are you using?

Thanks
