My virtual machine has a setting that when the first time a user logs in, 
it creates a home directory for the user automatically if the user does not 
have a home directory.

In my script, I want to achieve:  Log in as different users so that they 
all have home directory setup. But I'm not sure how to do it.

I tried to write this in my task:
 - name: Create home dir
   remote_user: testuser2
   shell: /usr/bin/whoami

But it threw an exception:

OpenSSH_5.9p1-hpn13v12 Debian-ts14, OpenSSL 0.9.8zc 15 Oct 2014
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug3: key names ok: 
[ecdsa-sha2-nistp256,ecdsa-sha2-nistp384,ssh-rsa,ssh-dss]
debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 13: Applying options for *
debug1: auto-mux: Trying existing master
ControlPath too long

While if I change the remote_user to a user that has already had a home 
directory in the machine, it will finish successfully.
