As this is a mirrored root device, I replaced the existing BOOTX64.EFI code by loader.efi
on both C and 11 on both disks.
This should allow booting with the FreeBSD loader even if one disk fails.

efibootmgr seems to work only on the current boot device, so I could
not create new entries or change bootorder on the mirror.
