I think you are on the right track.
I suspect you don't want 'item.datatype' in your with_items list - you only
need item. when you are dereferencing the variable.
Not tested, but I think maybe something like this is what you are after. I
changed subkey to location as it seems subkey has a special meaning in yaml.
Incidentally I use yamllint.com or a yaml-aware editor such as notepad++ to
help get my syntax straight, that might help here.

-
name: "Insert Updates needed for WSUS"
win_regedit:
data: "{{item.data}}"
datatype: "{{item.datatype}}"
key: "HKLM:\\SOFTWARE\\Policies\\Microsoft\\Windows\\{{item.location}}"
value: "{{item.value}}"
with_items:
- location: WindowsUpdate
data: "http://x.x.x.x:8530";
datatype: string
value: WUServer
- location: SomeOtherLocation
data: "http://x.x.x.x:8530";
datatype: string
value: WUServer
Hope this helps,
Jon
