Not had to solve this problem myself but I'd have a look at 'with_together'
and set_fact so that you could create a new fact which contains all the
information.
See
http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/playbooks_loops.html#looping-over-parallel-sets-of-data
for documentation about with_together.
Hope this helps,
Jon
