What shows if you do the likes of (showing an amd64 context example):

# ls -lah /boot/efi/efi/*/*
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root wheel  643K Aug 24 05:32 /boot/efi/efi/BOOT/bootx64.efi
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root wheel  643K Aug 24 05:32 /boot/efi/efi/FREEBSD/loader.efi

If one is old, then it is probably the one actually being used.
(The name bootx64.efi is amd64 specific: other platforms use
other names.)

In such a case, you might need something like:

# cp -a /boot/loader.efi /boot/efi/efi/BOOT/bootx64.efi

I have the same issue in a completely different context:

1. amd64 not arm64
2. a vm running in bhyve, not baremetal
3. the host is 15.0-CURRENT #0 n270917-5dbf886104b4 amd64 1500019 1500019 
zfs-on-root
   built July 4th.
4. the guest is 13.4-STABLE stable/13-n258323-e7b4f6e0c064 amd64 1304500 
1304500 zfs-on-root

5. on the guest :- % gpart list | grep -Ew '(Name|efi)'
                   1. Name: vtbd0p1
                   2. Name: vtbd0p2
                   3. Name: vtbd0p3
                   1. Name: vtbd0

on the guest, there is no ESP in this case, no bootx64.efi, /boot/efi is empty

After source building to latest stable in the usual way, same error message 
'loader needs updating'.

Any ideas?
