For now, I suggest we should only apply the idea "reduce the size of the

i'd like to see the old behaviour for physical machines to be restored
as well since this has rendered my drm-next test rig broken :(

Eventually I committed 314956 for the issue:
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=314956
The old behaviour for physical machines are restored.

PS, I understand usually I should put the patch on phabricator for review,
before it's committed, but since the issue here is critical, I committed it
directly to unblock people first. Sorry.
Please comment on the patch if you think it needs rework  -- I hope not. :-)


Thank you Dexuan - I will do a build today and reboot when I am home from work tonight. FWIW I verified that if I boot my system with in "classic" BIOS mode I am able to load the kernel and go multi-user, so this is probably the fix for me.

Cheers!
