That version does not have the real-time gfapi based version of the 
`info split-brain` command and it just prints prior event history from 
the selfheal daemon's memory. You can restart selfheal daemon to get rid 
of it.  Or you could ignore the message. Probably a good time to upgrade 
to 3.7 or 3.8.
