A tentative success story:

Using the patched r8169 driver & powertop tunables set to "GOOD", my CPU was able to reach the C7 package state. I noticed C7 is only reached when the laptop is unplugged, otherwise only C3 is reached. I am not sure if this behavior is expected, but may be leading to the confusion above.

CPU temperatures seem to idle around 40-60 degrees celsius. This is slightly higher than Windows 10 (where I checked it at about 40-50 degrees celsius). The fan kicks on every once in a while, but goes away as expected ~30 seconds later.

I am using Ubuntu 17.10 with the 4.13.0-16-generic kernel.
