I may well be misreading this message, but this sounds to me that this
is a misinterpretation. So, just to clarify in case that is needed.

CONFIG_MSEAL_SYSTEM_MAPPINGS does work fine for the UML kernel.
However, the UML kernel is a normal userspace application itself and
for this application to run, the host kernel must have the feature
disabled.

So, UML supports the feature. But it still *cannot* run on a host
machine that has the feature enabled.
