dt-bindings: arm: idle-states: Use "e.g." and "i.e." consistently

Replace abbreviations "eg" and "ie" by "e.g." resp. "i.e." for
consistency.

An idle CPU requires the expected min-residency time to select the most

An operating system scheduler may need to compute the shortest wake-up delay
for CPUs in the system by detecting how long will it take to get a CPU out

The wake-up latency must take into account the entry latency if that period
has not expired. The abortable nature of the PREP period can be ignored
if it cannot be relied upon (e.g. the PREP deadline may occur much sooner than
the worst case since it depends on the CPU operating conditions, ie caches

Graph 2: idle states min-residency example
In graph 2 above, that takes into account idle states entry/exit energy
costs, it is clear that if the idle state residency time (ie time till next
costs, it is clear that if the idle state residency time (i.e. time till next
wake-up IRQ) is less than IDLE2-min-residency, IDLE1 is the better idle state
choice energywise.
This is mainly down to the fact that IDLE1 entry/exit energy costs are lower
than IDLE2.
However, the lower power consumption (ie shallower energy curve slope) of idle
state IDLE2 implies that after a suitable time, IDLE2 becomes more energy
However, the lower power consumption (i.e. shallower energy curve slope) of
