I believe that the issue is org-eldoc-documentation-function itself is
called with the wrong number of arguments; the new behaviour of
eldoc-mode is to call the documentation functions with a callback
argument, that the documentation function invokes to return its value,
unless the strategy is a function.

From the docstring for eldoc-documentation-strategy:

Another approach would be to, I suppose, make
org-eldoc-documentation-function take an optional callback argument
(defaulting to identity) and either wrap the whole body of
the function in a funcall of that function or pass the callback to all
the functions that org-eldoc-documentation-function calls.
