The question is not clear.  The host will only have a nonstandard
split if it has CONFIG_VMSPLIT_2G or equivalent enabled.

Do you instead mean whether UML will run on a nonstandard split host
if IT (not the host) has CONFIG_HOST_2G_2G (not CONFIG_VMSPLIT_2G)
enabled?

If so, the answer for now is yes.

More a bug.  We are considering ways of detecting the host vmsplit at
run time and adapting to it, but added back the CONFIG_HOST_2G_2G as
an interim measure.
