Here is a sample project to reproduce the issue:
**models.py**
{{{#!python
from django.db import models
class Author(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=32)
class Publisher(models.Model):
authors = models.ManyToManyField(Author)
class Book(models.Model):
publisher = models.ForeignKey(Publisher, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
author = models.ForeignKey(Author, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
}}}
This query:
{{{#!python
list(Book.objects.filter(author__in=F('publisher__authors')))
}}}
then fails with `psycopg2.errors.SyntaxError: syntax error at or near
""ferror_publisher_authors""`
The problem is that the generated query looks like this:
{{{#!sql
SELECT "ferror_book"."id", "ferror_book"."publisher_id",
"ferror_book"."author_id"
FROM "ferror_book"
INNER JOIN "ferror_publisher" ON ("ferror_book"."publisher_id" =
"ferror_publisher"."id")
INNER JOIN "ferror_publisher_authors" ON ("ferror_publisher"."id" =
"ferror_publisher_authors"."publisher_id")
WHERE "ferror_book"."author_id" IN "ferror_publisher_authors"."author_id"
}}}
This issue is present in both 3.0.10 and 3.1.5. When the same code is run
in Django 2.2.16, a correct query is created with brackets around the
`"ferror_publisher_authors"."author_id"` part at the end.
{{{#!sql
SELECT "ferror_book"."id", "ferror_book"."publisher_id",
"ferror_book"."author_id"
FROM "ferror_book"
INNER JOIN "ferror_publisher" ON ("ferror_book"."publisher_id" =
"ferror_publisher"."id")
INNER JOIN "ferror_publisher_authors" ON ("ferror_publisher"."id" =
"ferror_publisher_authors"."publisher_id")
WHERE "ferror_book"."author_id" IN
("ferror_publisher_authors"."author_id")
}}}

Comment (by Simon Charette):
Not sure if this was ever explicitly supported, any reason you don't use
`author=F('publisher__authors')`?

Thanks for the hint. I was thinking about it yesterday after I submitted
the bug report and wanted to test it today (my actual use case is more
complicated than the test code), but you were faster :)
