Ok, I didn't know such things existed.
I would think that a coreboot framebuffer would be preferred over a
VGA console, unless there was a system that only had the framebuffer
in uncached-not-write-combined mapping.

While it is incredibly unlikely someone would try, amd64 capable
"industrial" motherboards with ISA exist. We don't build
pcdisplay(4) on am
You can't put an ISA CGA/EGA/MGA in an AMD64 system, so these can
go away.
Does anyone know if there is an ordering reason that the coreboot
efifb_cb_cnattach console is after the VGA attach? Things could be
cleaned up a bit if the efifb entry points just checked for both
efi and coreboot framebuf
