+ ARM64 now have efifb support, if you want to have serial console
+ on your arm64 board when an screen is connected and the bootloader
+ setup a frambuffer for us to use, just add :
+ boot_serial=YES
+ boot_multicons=YES
+ in /boot/loader.conf
+ For Raspberry Pi 3 (RPI) users, this is needed even if you don't have
+ an screen connected as the firmware will setup a framebuffer are that
+ u-boot will expose as an EFI framebuffer.
