Well, according to The Man:

: jmglov@example.com; man 2 unlink
UNLINK(2)           Linux Programmer's Manual           UNLINK(2)



NAME
       unlink - delete a name and possibly the file it refers to

SYNOPSIS
       #include <unistd.h>

       int unlink(const char *pathname);

DESCRIPTION
       unlink  deletes  a  name from the filesystem. 

[...]


A return value of zero indicates success, in that twisted Unix way, so
that message just means a lockfile is being deleted. No problems there.
