No, there is no hardware-specific limitations. What the documentation
tries to explain (rather poorly, I agree!) is that a roaming clients
like laptops would have some issues when OTP is the only scheme enabled
for the user.

This is solved in SSSD 1.13 and both solution and the problem are
described in detail in
