I think that you can use the JIRA Behaviours plugin to achieve that as it allows adding custom validation (both client side and server side) when creating an issue. So you can implement validator that checks if the selected subtask is valid for the issue type that is being used as sub-task parent. I can't give a sample code as I'm not very familliar with the Behaviours plugin but if you take a look here - https://jamieechlin.atlassian.net/wiki/display/JBHV/JIRA+Behaviours+Plugin it should be easy to implement such logic
