On `58720809f527 v6.6-rc6 6.6-rc6 2de3c93ef41b' is what I have:

,----
| 1599  /* cyrix could have cpuid enabled via c_identify()*/
| 1600  if (have_cpuid_p()) {
| 1601  	cpu_detect(c);
| 1602  	get_cpu_vendor(c);
| 1603  	get_cpu_cap(c);
| 1604  	get_cpu_address_sizes(c);                   <= called first
| 1605  	setup_force_cpu_cap(X86_FEATURE_CPUID);
| 1606  	cpu_parse_early_param();
| 1607  
| 1608  	if (this_cpu->c_early_init)
| 1609  		this_cpu->c_early_init(c);
| 1610  
| 1611  	c->cpu_index = 0;
| 1612  	filter_cpuid_features(c, false);
| 1613  
| 1614  	if (this_cpu->c_bsp_init)
| 1615  		this_cpu->c_bsp_init(c);
| 1616  } else {
| 1617  	setup_clear_cpu_cap(X86_FEATURE_CPUID);
| 1618  }
`----
Listing 1: arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c

=> get_cpu_address_sizes() is called first which is also conform to my
   experiments and instrumentation.
