Boot messages scroll off bottom of screen on ThinkPad T580 with drm-next-kmod-20180822

I'm not sure when this started, but I've recently updated my kernel to
r338669 (12.0-ALPHA5) and am running drm-next-kmod-4.11-g20180822on a
ThinkPad T530. Now when I boot, after the i915kms.ko loads the boot
messages start scrolling off the bottom of the screen, and I can only
see them by hitting Enter lots of times. As suggested on gitter.im I
tried running drm-devel-kmod, but it caused the screen to blank and the
machine to apparently hang (as in
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-x11/2018-September/021588.html,
but the caps lock key on the built-in keyboard kept working).

This is the dmesg from loading drm-next-kmod:
