Hi Tim, thanks! I saw the CONFIG_FB_EFI=y change to the v5.4 linux-azure focal/master-next branch here:
https://git.launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux-azure/+git/focal/log/?h=master-next

My Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic) VM, which was created from the Azure marketplace Ubuntu 18.04 image, has the kernel 5.4 kernel by default:

I suppose my 18.04 VM will automatically get a new 5.4 kernel that has CONFIG_FB_EFI=y.
