If there is only one large container for the reservoir, it is divided so that the front and rear hydraulic circuits have separate fluid reserves.
If a leak develops in either circuit the design assures that the remaining working circuit has its own fluid reservoir.
One reservoir makes topping up easier and potentially can hold more hydraulic fluid.

The other option is for the two circuits to have their own small reservoir with a float switch so if there is a leak in either circuit, the BRAKE warning lamp is illuminated.

then i would say that it's a twin circuit master and the divider is just that to separate the front and rear breaks. if you post a pic we can tell you for shore
