I can't speak to sssd but IPA won't allow combining maps so there is no
way to have a "common" location and combine that with others. I suppose
that SSSD might be able to combine locations but it could be difficult
to handle the display of maps within IPA. I assume you'd want more than
a single set of common maps. Family style serving of locations would be
pretty complex.

It also isn't possible to control which maps apply by
group/hostgroup/hbac. A client can only be enrolled to a single location.
