The change was not to FreeBSD at all (any vintage). The
change was only to the ports:
sysutils/u-boot-rpi[34]
so that the result would have a sufficient number of
pages indicated reserved (in the right place). In turn
the kernel automatically avoids using those pages.
Snapshot builds for the like of RPi3 and RPi4 (and others)
have more than just FreeBSD in the image: one or more
ports contribute material as well. It is a separate
question which vintage of the ports are used to make
snapshots.
/[ports]/head/sysutils/u-boot-rpi3 reports -r528547 as being
the update for RPi3's (I also show the more recent update
log entries):

sysutils/u-boot: Update to 2020.04
While here use python3 for it as it now works.
Two slave ports have been marked broken :
u-boot-pandaboard and u-boot-duovero
Both of those boards have ~0 users in FreeBSD so if you are one of
those raise your hand.

sysutils/u-boot-rpi{3,4}: Add patch to fix PSCI stub reservation
For the traditional spin table setup, only the lowest page needs
to be reserved. However, our PSCI stubs are slightly bigger and occupy
a little over one page. These patches, already sent upstream, allow a
variable number of initial pages to be reserved for the SMP stubs. We
then set the values for these in our fragment to '2' to reserve the first
and second page.
