 When looking up a reverse relation on a ManyToManyField that uses a custom
 model manager, not using `all()` before calling `count()` will not use the
 custom model manager. This results in `obj.m2m_lookup.count()` yielding a
 different result than `obj.m2m_lookup.all().count`, which is new behaviour
 in 2.2, and unexpected (at least to me).

 I've written up a [https://github.com/rixx/django-22-issue minimal test
 case] to showcase the issue. Inlining here:

 {{{
 #!python
 from django.db import models


 class Author(models.Model):
     name = models.CharField(max_length=100)


 class BookManager(models.Manager):
     def get_queryset(self):
         return super().get_queryset().exclude(state='deleted')


 class Book(models.Model):
     title = models.CharField(max_length=100)
     authors = models.ManyToManyField(to=Author, related_name='books')
     state = models.CharField(choices=(('regular', 'regular'), ('deleted',
 'deleted')), default='regular', max_length=100)

     objects = BookManager()

 a = Author.objects.create(name='Bill')
 b1 = Book.objects.create(title='Sonnets', state='deleted')
 b2 = Book.objects.create(title='Hamlet')
 b1.authors.add(a)
 b2.authors.add(a)
 a.books.count()  # Returns 2
 a.books.all().count()  # Returns 1
 }}}
