[PATCH 4.14 176/239] x86/CPU: Change query logic so CPUID is enabled before testing

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

From: Matthew Whitehead <tedheadster@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 2893cc8ff892fa74972d8dc0e1d0dc65116daaa3 ]

Presently we check first if CPUID is enabled. If it is not already
enabled, then we next call identify_cpu_without_cpuid() and clear
X86_FEATURE_CPUID.

Unfortunately, identify_cpu_without_cpuid() is the function where CPUID
becomes _enabled_ on Cyrix 6x86/6x86L CPUs.

Reverse the calling sequence so that CPUID is first enabled, and then
check a second time to see if the feature has now been activated.
