            Bug ID: 293601
           Summary: efi: Regression with "Allow RELAXED or STRICT boot
                    policies" commit
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

It seems that commit "Allow RELAXED or STRICT boot policies" generated a
regression.

Example:
- PC with FreeBSD ZFS install (zroot/ROOT/default) on nvme disk

Now I want to fix this installation by boot from an USB key with a CURRENT
vanilla FreeBSD memstick on it.
But with this change, it could not boot from it anymore.

When the kernel will try to mount root filesystem, it will wrongly try to mount
the nvme disk (and fails) and will show:

Loader variables:
vfs.root.mountfrom=zfs:zroot/ROOT/default

Which is wrong: it must use the memstick mountfrom (something like
ufs:ufs/FreeBSD_Install)
