Counter cache updates wrong column with :through relation

[r00takaspin]

Steps to reproduce

# frozen_string_literal: true

begin
  require "bundler/inline"
rescue LoadError => e
  $stderr.puts "Bundler version 1.10 or later is required. Please update your Bundler"
  raise e
end

gemfile(true) do
  source "https://rubygems.org"
  gem "rails", github: "rails/rails"
  gem "arel", github: "rails/arel"
  gem "sqlite3"
end

require "active_record"
require "minitest/autorun"
require "logger"

# This connection will do for database-independent bug reports.
ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(adapter: "sqlite3", database: ":memory:")
ActiveRecord::Base.logger = Logger.new(STDOUT)

ActiveRecord::Schema.define do
  create_table :journals, force: true do |t|
    t.integer :issues_count, default: 0
    t.integer :articles_count, default: 0
  end

  create_table :issues, force: true do |t|
    t.integer :journal_id
    t.integer :articles_count
  end

  create_table :articles, force: true do |t|
    t.integer :issue_id
  end
end

class Journal < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :issues
  has_many :articles, through: :issues
end

class Issue < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :journal, counter_cache: true
  has_many :articles
end

class Article < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :issue, counter_cache: true
end

class BugTest < Minitest::Test
  def test_counter_cache
    journal = Journal.create!
    journal.issues << Issue.create!(articles: [Article.create!, Article.create!])

    Journal.reset_counters(journal.id, :articles)

    assert_equal journal.reload.articles_count, 2
  end
end

Expected behavior

Counter articles_count will be updated

Actual behavior

Instead of articles_count counter column, call of #reset_counters updates issues_count counter column
