Hi Arun, This could be a bug in your kernel code servicing your binder process. Your kernel code or driver has invoked schedule/sleep from a place that's not allowed to sleep/block. One possible case for this bug to occur could be: you are executing an interrupt handler with interrupts disabled, ( and also had acquired spin lock) and tried to invoke schedule/sleep.
