MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC

I get this message just after grub screen. I made a small search and learnt that apics are essential for interprocessor communication, so the solution with no apic is off the table as it (I believe) disables this feature, even though (I guess) I am not really able to use at the moment. So should I look for a bios update or is there another real solution? By the way, my system is just fine, but rarely locks down, l.e., even alt+sysrq+b does not respond and maybe irrelevant but my laptop does not sleep or hibernate, in fact does but no wake up.

I have not enough knowledge of system logs, if you need any of those to help me, please help me with that, too.
