No idea. My only NetbSD/UEFI setup is on an experimental new laptop.

I notice that on my other APU2 I have

% cat /boot.cfg
consdev=pc
menu=Boot normally:rndseed /etc/entropy-file;consdev com0;boot netbsd8
menu=Boot mp:rndseed /etc/entropy-file;consdev com0;boot netbsd-mp
menu=Boot mp2:rndseed /etc/entropy-file;consdev com0;boot netbsd-mp2
...
and 
# /usr/sbin/installboot -ve /dev/rwd0a
File system:         /dev/rwd0a
Boot options:        timeout 15, flags 0, speed 115200, ioaddr 0, console pc

but this won't help you either, right?

So maybe compile the speed into the kernel.
