I tried running your code on my local machine. Of course I don't have "mksysb" so I had to substitute things I've got, but your logic with respect to "failed_when:" and "hostvars[host]['mksys']['msg']" appears to be okay.
The only thing that stuck out to me is that you have some leading tabs in your original post's yaml. Perhaps that's an artifact of posting, email, etc., but do check for tabs and retest if you find any. Either way let us know.
