The time is averaged out for 100000 cpuidle transactions with varying load. - entry-latency-us Usage: Required "Definition: u32 value representing worst case latency in microseconds required to enter the idle state. ..." Is that an average value in your opinion ? I am being pedantic, I know, but we define bindings to be followed, not interpreted.
