this was supposed to be the call with strict = 1

Do you mean to use 'strict_check' argument in xics_set_affinity?
set_affinity call is declared in linux/irq.h, so if modifying
xics_set_affinity will affect other arch's set_affinity also.

Yes.   The whole point of
-static int get_irq_server(unsigned int virq)
+static int get_irq_server(unsigned int virq, unsigned int 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.
