Intel IA32 program guild doesn't mention that this MSR should be set by BIOS, instead, it mentions "Software can use whatever criteria it sees fit to program the MSR with the appropriate value.". Discuss with IBV, they'd like to keep this MSR as default, and let OS to change value if desired. This message should be more proper set as an info than a warning.
