No parens around the return value.  That is, use return -1;

Yes.   The whole point of

> strict_check)
was to factor out the common code in this function.

I wasn't trying to change the prototype of xics_set_affinity.

Looking at the code a bit, I think part of the confusion is that newmask
is horribly misnamed.   Please rename it to server or irqserver.
Obtain its value by calling get_irq_server.  If the server returned
is -1 (in strict mode), don't call rtas (just return like today).
I guess a printk could be in order since the function is void, and
only root can request the change.
