Yes, the idle power is back down to V4 levels. (I did not do a new graph).

Some other data from this week (7 patch set + poll fix verses kernel 4.16-rc5):

pipe-test: The not cross core test is the most dramatic. Using CPU's 3 and 7,
or core 3, uses 6% less power and 18% performance improvement.

A couple of Phoronix tests (I didn't get very far yet):
himeno: 11% performance improvement; 14% less power.
compress-lzma: small performance improvement; small power improvement.
mafft: performance similar; small power improvement.
