It can be reproduced by trying to boot this iso:

It is easier to reproduce it using power8/powernv8.
power8 only has Hash MMU. I understand that FreeBSD also supports power9
processor. with radix ? and XIVE ?
Right, FreeBSD supports POWER9 with Radix, that is now the default MMU
choice. To select Hash MMU, you need to pass radix_mmu=0 to kernel
command line.
FreeBSD supports XIVE too, but only for PowerNV.
BTW, when trying to boot with Radix instead of Hash, a different issue
happens. Boot goes further, but then programs start to get SIGILL or
SIGSEGV.
