Actually the issue is that the old /var/log/neutron is a path and can not be converted to a link without removing it prior:

 ansible compute_hosts -m shell -a 'rm -rf /var/log/neutron'

When was it a folder? Early juno or icehouse? I was not able to reproduce with a fresh juno install to kilo upgrade.

That should be fixing this for you.
