DELL Precision 7530 BIOS update problems on Ubuntu 18.04

there is an annoying problem due to the updating of my DELL Precision 7530 bios (from 1.10.1 to 1.11.1 or 1.12.1) with Ubuntu 18.04 on board: after upgrade, some functions key (Wifi, Brightness Up/Down, Microphone On/Off and probability others) no longer work.

Looking in the syslog I see some errors correlated to ACPI Bios component:

 atkbd serio0: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0x88 on isa0060/serio0). atkbd serio0: Use 'setkeycodes e008 <keycode>' to make it known. ACPI BIOS Error (bug): Could not resolve [\_SB.PCI0.PEG0.NHDA], AE_NOT_FOUND (20181213/psargs-330) ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed \NEVT, AE_NOT_FOUND (20181213/psparse-531) ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed \_SB.PCI0.LPCB.ECDV._Q66, AE_NOT_FOUND (20181213/psparse-531)

This forced me to reinstall the bios version 1.10.1. How is it possible to solve the problem? Is it a bug related to the BIOS or is it necessary to resolve into linux kernel?

Thanks in advance.
