I'd say it's linked to the following change in python-tripleoclient:

commit 3dd2c83883960bd279e82b9fb0d4a3cb16c5e2cb
Author: Mathieu Bultel <email address hidden>

    Use validation framework for running undercloud checkdisk

    The validations playbook is own and moved under the VF
    ansible dir.
    The undercloud preflight check should use VF for running it.

    Change-Id: Id853b1e80d690734ac9c32a1b914e49608f6cc43

Though... it's "old" ? Is it possible it only shows up now?

    Ensure we're using proper types for validation_name and _id

    In some case we might get string instead of list - instead of failing,
    just do a simple convertion and go on.

    We also support both notation, either playbook name (foo.yaml) and
    validation name (foo) in the search of valid content.
