The HA heartbeat is the same. I would turn off connection mirroring.
Upgrading firmware will also mean to upgrade the build-in FPGAs and the AOM.
That´s why there is no 100% roll back in my opinion.
But of course you can reboot into the previous volume at any time.
In case you face an unwanted active / active you can force a device in offline state (WebUI device settings) or via tmsh:
tmsh run sys failover offline
To recover:
tmsh run sys failover online
I´m wondering why to get onto 11.3 instead of moving on to v11.4HF3?
Personally today I still prefer 11.2.1 w/ latest hotfix if there is no need for one of the new modules i.e. AFM.
