Why is the old parent relevant here? Even when node didn't have a parent
before you should still add it to the children list of the new parent.

Also node->parent should be set to the new parent.

You seem to honour the case that node didn't have a parent previously.
Does the list_del(&node->parent_list) work in this case? I can't see any
INIT_LIST_HEAD(&node->parent_list) in the code, so I assume running a
list_del on it results in a NULL pointer dereference.
