It means any Lifelink from your cards (which would be common coming from Demon Lords) would still deal full damage. Everything else (opponent’s effects and direct attacks) will be reduced. My guess is that Bushi figures it would create too much advantage to allow the penalties of Lifelink monsters to be reduced so easily.
