Have you done a search on the NOW site for DFS?  There are quite a few links.  There are indeed limitations, as far as I remember.  But there also seems to be quite a few more articles now compared to when last I looked at this (over a year ago).  Take a look and see if your matter is addressed anywhere there:

Subject: cifs.homedir and Microsoft DFS global name space

Does anyone have experience setting up cifs.homedir feature on FAS3040 (Ontap 7.2) with Microsoft DFS global name space? I have been trying to set this up but permission are causing as issue. Homedir feature works fine without DFS but when we use DFS then users can access other users home drives also as permission needs to be set for everyone to have full access.
