Since battery consumption is quite relative I think It would be good if
you can make a comparable benchmark as this is further discussed.
Eg fully charge your notebook, pull the plug, suspend it at 100% and
check the power left after some repeatable amount of time.

After you've adjusted all of these in powertop, have you compared
your performance of the battery over sleep (and actually over runtime
usage really too)?

They should help to allow the CPU to get into deeper states.

After you've made that change you should also see on the "Idle Stats"
page that your CPU is spending more time in the lower C states (hopefully
more in C9/10).

Srinivas,

Do you know why Runtime PM is defaulting to disabled for all of these
devices?  Is that a default kernel policy problem or a distro policy problem?
