statedump: do not print the inode number in the statedump

    Since gfid is used to uniquely identify a inode, in the statedump
    printing inode number is not necessary. Its suffecient if the gfid
    of the inode is printed. And do not print the the inodelks, entrylks
    and posixlks if the lock count is 0.
