Received the card, and after the normal fight with serial connections and null-modem conversion, verified that it works with stock FreeBSD 11.1. This was just connecting one port to another and running two copies of cu(1), one on each port:
Then selecting another console with Alt-F2, then running
Installing FreeNAS 11.0, I was able to see /dev/cuau0 through /dev/cua03. The first two are the motherboard ports, the last two are the Lava card.
The same test with cu worked on the FreeNAS system, no additional kernel modules required. I'll install an earlier version of FreeNAS to see whether this was recently added.
Tested with FreeNAS 11.0-RELEASE, and the test between the two ports worked.
cu -l /dev/cuau2 -s 115200

cu -l /dev/cuau3 -s 115200
