Can you please try the below patch?
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D9904
You can find the URL of the "Download Raw Diff" in the page and
'wget' the patch and then apply it.

It should be able to fix the recent UEFI-boot issue introduced by me.

You may not need to re-buildworld. Please this link to replace the
bad 'loader.efi':

I'm planning to commit the patch later today in about 6 hours, because
I'm pretty confident in the patch and it should fix the critical issue...

Thanks,
