It means you can't have multi master between more than one directory 
server and more than one AD.

See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=182515 and

In your case it should be fine because you have one directory server and 
one AD.

Regular 389 cannot do this, but freeipa has a winsync plugin that does
