As far as I know, it's mainly games with DRM that might trigger on multiple installs/computers. So companies will disable family sharing. Not sure how common this is.
I used to use old (current before the update hits stable) family sharing and I'd say among 250 games, at least more than 220-230 were available on family sharing. This included MGSV:PP and Max Max back when they were released. I don't know if developers become more restrictive on family sharing over the years, but seeing that old designations will carry on to the new Steam Family thing, I reckon this will be a huge hit in the age of crackdown on password sharing in other media platforms.
