You are unlikely to need drivemap on platform with secure boot (a.k.a.
UEFI). Actually it is not even built on this platform.

Upstream grub (and you post to upstream list) does not support secure
boot at all. All distributions I am aware of disable module loading and
build signed grub image that includes modules maintainer thought were
necessary.

If you really want to access NTFS (as opposed to booting Windows which
is of course possible with secure boot and distribution images) -
contact your distribution and request inclusion of missing modules in
signed grub image.
