Strange message appeared in power-off process

Dear community,

A strange message was shown when I shut down the PC. I don’t know what it meant, so I came here for help. This message appeared after I updated to the latest version of Manjaro with Linux 5.9.11-2 and xfce.

The message flashed in the black screen very quickly so I had to record it. It looks like trace of the shut down process. It is shown in the link below.
