Most likely the above are NOT idle values. The BIOS is not idle - at
least never as idle as Linux can be with CPU frequency and voltage
scaling and low C states.

This is correct reasoning though. temp3 is CPU temp. But you're
comparing Linux idle with BIOS not idle, no surprise the values don't
match.
