The lineinfile module uses the os.linesep variable to insert newlines, so this should not be happening unless the file had either been edited on a Windows system or had the ^M's before the edit occurred. Can you verify the original file did not have the incorrect newlines, and that you are not running the playbook from a Windows machine (ie. via cygwin)?
