It's not possible to compare the last code that was in sys/dev/drm2 with even the first drm-kmod. drm-kmod didn't originated from the sys/dev/drm2 code, it was started to be port from scratch from the Linux code with Linuxkpi. If radeonkms doesn't work for you on -CURRENT (I insist on -CURRENT as it's the only branch activelly supported right now) please create a new issue at https://github.com/freebsd/drm-kmod/. Note that it works for powerpc64 for some devices and while it doesn't mean that it might work on i386 or with the hardware that you have it means that it's not dead code. I suggest you first try the image I've made a few weeks ago, see https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2020-September/077024.html for the links.
