All[1] the "hosts" is trying to write to the same file at the same the same
time, and that is causing your problem.

This last task you need to run as loop with run_once so only one task is
writing to the file.
Something like this:
- name: Output info to output.txt
lineinfile:
dest: /tmp/output.txt
line: "{{ hostvars[item].ansible_hostname }}, {{
hostvars[item].ansible_kernel }}, {{ hostvars[item].rh_type.stdout }}"
create: yes
insertafter: EOF
delegate_to: localhost
run_once: yes
with_items: "{{ ansible_play_hosts }}"
[1] How may host is actually determine by fork and serial. Default it would be
5 hosts at a time.
