This can be an hlist. However, you are not documenting what's the
locking here. There are many places in which KVM does a
"cond_resched_lock(&vcpu->kvm->mmu_lock);" and you need to explain how
flush_link is not live across that.
I would start from a simpler patch that just uses the list-based flush
in kvm_mmu_commit_zap_page, where you already have the list of things to
flush as invalid_list.

Also this is not adding parent_pte, so the subject is incorrect.
