efifb driver issue in hyperv 2012R2

Test Environment: 
      HyperV 2012R2 or VMWare 10.0 workstation
installation ISO:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/amd64/ISO-IMAGES/10.1/FreeBSD-10.1-RELEASE-amd64-uefi-dvd1.iso

>From FreeBSD10.1, it claims that it would support UEFI.
In HyperV 2012R2, I tried to Create a Generation 2 VM (secure boot disabled),
and then install from the above IOS. In the boot up, it would hang on the
following:
    VT: running with driver "efifb"

After code check, there is something wrong with efifb driver in FreeBSD 10.1. I
tried same steps in VMWare 10.0, it has same issue.

Note:
If you try to repro this issue in VMWare 10.0, you should follow this link to
enable UEFI:
