Blizzard really doesn't seem to care about their lore at all.
It seems that the DK's for the Horde are working for themselves, and the ones for Alliance are trying to "atone" for their sins. Both pretty flimsy reasons.

From a lore standpoint, Death Knights would probably be Forsaken only, as they are all undead creatures who now have "free will". Abominations, Banshees, Ghouls etc. Death Knights would fit right in.

I don't think Blizzard has stated the lore reasons yet anyway. It's still very early and things are subject to change.
