So on these platforms, all system sleep states (incl. S3) are entered
through what Linux sees as s2idle, with a separate MCU doing a lot
behind the scenes. s2idle of course also covers the runtime cpuidle
cases.

All but the deepest state (which Linux doesn't differentiate as of
today) are effectively somewhat like s0ix.
It's a bit hard to draw accurate lines between Intel terminology and
what we have here, as there's way more things onboard than just the CPU
cluster that may be operating independently..
