Any white hat technique, when overused, becomes stained and eventually turns black. If you're making sub-domains for the user's benefit, that's good. If you're creating 1000's of subdomains just so you can rank for those keywords, that's no longer such a nice clean white - dingy gray at best.
In New York this past March, it was suggested that Google was starting to look at the reason this was being done (algorithmically) and finding a lot of spammy subdomains, so they were implying that this may not work much longer and it may be cause for the entire domain to drop, not just the subdomain. There were several warnings issued during that conference.
