CPU random generator seem to be failing, disabling hardware random number generation after bios update

Hello Community.

I get the below message when I try to run any program on terminal.

"WARNING: CPU random generator seem to be failing, disabling hardware random number generation
WARNING: RDRND generated: 0xffffffff 0xffffffff 0xffffffff 0xffffffff"

in dell laptop after bios update to 1.35.0

The processor is AMD-RYZEN5 

The operating system is Ubuntu

the laptop is <Private data removed from public view. DELL-Admin>  Vostro 15 3515  

When I search, I find that the CPU random generator can be disabled...

But that solution isn't recommended. 

Any Idea how this can be solved or should I wait till the next Bios update?
