No, it's not a regression, it has been this way for YEARS.
Does it work fine on Linux?
I didn't previously know FreeBSD users were supposed to test Linux.  I happen
to be tracking KDE Neon, Ubuntu, and Linux Mint Cinnamon, and no I don't see
this there, but I also don't see any boot messages on Linux.
Maybe try playing with (reserved) onboard video memory in BIOS
I see nothing of the sort in my BIOS.
 disabling framebuffer compression (compat.linuxkpi.i915_enable_fbc=0 in
/boot/loader.conf
This I could try...
 switching from modesetting (builtin generic DDX) to xf86-video-intel then
enable SNA+DRI3.
I have no idea what you're talking about.  You are the video expert, I'm a
user.
"Got stolen memory" is normal behavior on Intel iGPUs
Maybe because it's existed since Intel build i915 into their chips and you guys
have ignored the problem since the beginning?
Doesn't that phrase "stolen memory" bother you?
I don't mean to be disrespectful, but I think you guys should consult with
Intel about this memory.  I don't think it's for your use at all.
