From my understanding of how these whitelists work, Kodi will directly output the media in 4k if the 4k mode is whitelisted (but I'll check my logs to be sure). You can also do the same with lower modes and it will directly output in 720p for example. There's a bit of information about it in the PR for whitelists:

Edit: And if you haven't set a 720p whitelist, it kodi should upscale to whatever is set in settings (1080p)

I also had a bit of a wonky experience with the play 2 on a 4k LG. In the end, I just changed the resolution in the settings to 1080p and whitelisted the 4k modes. There isn't much point running the GUI in 4k anyway. When I start a 4k video, the resolution correctly switches to 4k and back again after stopping.

Maybe you can give this a shot.
