FWIW, here, it's
active state: C2
max_cstate: C8
bus master activity: c8444672
states:
C1: type[C1] promotion[C2] demotion[--] latency[000] usage[00000010] duration[00000000000000000000]
*C2: type[C2] promotion[--] demotion[C1] latency[001] usage[01848151] duration[00000000019686907116]
max_cstate is also C8, but I only have 2 C-states when on AC power, and
2 more C-states show up when on battery. I don't think you have to
worry.
