So unless your experiencing any actual problems this message is just informational. Also you didn't post much information, you should send the output from dmesg and any other pertinent information to your problem. Usually you don't want to load a lesser version my experience is that software vendors would provide a minimum kernel to run with, so if you have a later kernel then you should be o.k. The exception to this is if you are running a certified system which the vendor restricts their support too (then you have really no choice but to run what is certified, and forward any problems to that support group.
