Arcane restoration and Warlocks

In the new 5.5 Villainous Options, the Path of the Lich feat "Arcane Restoration" allows you recover up to 4 combined levels of spells slots when you use Soul Syphon.

My question is: How are the warlock pact slots used then? If I am a level 9+ Warlock, my pact slots are treated as 5th level. Does that mean I don't regain any pact slots once I reach 9th level?

That's correct. The magic item Pearl of Power has a similar issue where it stops being useful for Warlocks past a certain level.

These things just aren't really intended to be used by Warlocks.
