The above looks for bugs in installation-reports which have the given subject.

This actually searches for bugs in src:linux which have the given subject:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?archive=both;include=subject%3AACPI_INITRD_TABLE_OVERRIDE;dist=testing;package=src:linux

and returns the expected result.

You're right that searching by subject across all bugs would be useful;
this used to be possible with the search interface, and will be possible
again in the future. However, the code currently only supports limiting
the bugs returned by a previous search by subject.
