Yes, this card is integrated  into AMD C-60 processor.

 Try to put this line in your /boot/loader.conf, and reboot:

It fixes problem - I successfully booted both kernels with radeonkms module.
I lost any console output till X starts, but it's known issue too (?).

Can somebody add this workaround to https://wiki.freebsd.org/AMD_GPU ?

But after upgrade x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati port version from 6.14.6 to
7.2.0 I got second problem:
X starts, correctly set resolution for display, but on display I see only
noise.
I logged via ssh and tried to change resolution via xrandr, but without any
result.
Also "X -configure" fails with core dump.
X -configure output, Xorg.0.log's for ATI driver versions 6.14.6 and 7.2.0
attached.

Tell us if this fix your problem with both i386 and amd64. That silent
> reboot is not a known issue.

In my amd64 kernel's config was have "device radeondrm". After commenting
out this string the problem was solved.
