Description

The problem is revealed in 32-bit version; unfortunately the specification is not really too clear either. Fix confirmed with 32-bit UEFI and qemu, and verified no regression with 64-bit UEFI.

See also: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=320234, note the block io media issue is not yet addressed in FreeBSD.
