I purchased a new MacBook Air yesterday (model identifier
MacBookAir6,2).  UEFI boot and vt(4) worked correctly.  (My image
included Rafael's patch; I haven't tried a boot without.)

I also committed a change to display the framebuffer parameters
(address, dimensions, etc.) on boot, in order to help identify the
source of this issue.  If you have a moment can you build a new USB
stick image and give it a try?
