Have a look at async/poll
<http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/playbooks_async.html>. This isn't what it
was designed for, but it will likely solve your issue... You'll probably
want to do a sleep 5 && in front of the ifdown/ifup just to make sure that
the async daemonization has occurred and returned the jid to Ansible before
bouncing the interface (if it happens too quickly, you'll see the same
issue).
I'd suggest an initial async value of 30 and poll 10. It'll be a little
slower than it probably needs to be, but should be very safe from any races
that way.
