Removed binder messages from the lockup splat so that it's more readable.

OK, so we are waiting for the grace period on fsnotify_mark_srcu. Seems
like someone is holding fsnotify_mark_srcu too long or srcu period cannot
finish for some other reason. However the reproducer basically contains
only one binder ioctl and I have no idea how that's connected with fsnotify
in any way. So either the reproducer is wrong, or binder is corrupting
memory and fsnotify is just a victim, or something like that...
