In a model one can do `.select_related('foo__bar')`.
However in the admin view if one has `select_related = ('foo__bar', )` it
raises the error `Non-relational field given in select_related: 'bar'.
Choices are: ...`. One has to do `select_related = ('foo', )`. Hence to
select only certain fields, one has to override the `get_queryset`.
Seems a bit inconsistent? I guess it goes hand in hand with not allowing
foreign key fields in list display (#5863) etc.
