I believe you're seeing remnants of console messages that were sent
"behind the scenes" while the system is still busy taking care of other
shutdown tasks after the graphical shell is terminated.  The message
itself is not the cause of the delay, but rather the fact that you see
the message is a symptom of some other services that haven't given the
all-clear to systemd that they've successfully terminated.

I *believe* systemd will wait up to 90 seconds for these processes to
close cleanly, before taking more drastic measures (although, it has
been quite a while since I've read up on the boot/shutdown processing).

Additionally, I believe there is a way you can see the listing of
applications receiving these stop signals (similar to the start list
when the boot parameters do not include 'quiet splash'); though I can't
recall how that is configured.
