I don't know that anyone has ever did an analysis of what China changes but I suspect it is two fold: eliminate backdoors (regardless if they even exist) by other nations and add backdoors for China's Ministry of State Security (presumably). A third reason is derived from the latter: made in China for China because no one else in the world wants these processors because of the fact there's circuits in there expressly by and for the Chinese Communist Party.
Unless licensing resumes, I have a suspicion it will take 5+ years for China to even reach Zen+ level in design, nevermind Zen 2.
AMD agreeing to the licensing deal in the first place is kind of baffling. AMD must know something the general public doesn't. My guess is that the Chinese government is relying on homebrewed processors that suck and the licensing deal was the only way to get any kind of revenue stream from upgrading them.
