This was the last kernel with fast boot. In /etc/default/grub I had:
GRUB_GFXMODE=1920x1080
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep
Since linux-image-4.8.0-2-amd64 the boot process is slower.
linux-image-4.9.0-1-amd64:

ok it's not that slow but I think the difference is quite visible.
I said that the problem may be the framebuffer (vesafb/simplefb) only
because this was the only big difference in the 2 dmesg. But it can be
anything.
This is what I used for the moment.
linux-image-4.9.0-1-amd64 with GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text:

I tried with video=1920x1080 but there's no difference.
