I managed to get my whiskey lake GPU working
vgapci0@pci0:0:2:0: class=0x030000 card=0x08a51028 chip=0x3ea08086 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Intel Corporation'
device = 'UHD Graphics 620 (Whiskey Lake)'
class = display
subclass = VGA
I'm now running FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE and using the drm-current-kmod.
Xorg log is here:

Multi-monitor works.
The only thing I have noticed is that when using ctrl-mousewheel to zoom in xfce4, the zooming is sluggish.
Much appreciation to the people working on X stuff for FreeBSD.
Best regards
Christian
