Cannot update identity column

Issue type:

[ ] question [x] bug report [ ] feature request [ ] documentation issue

Database system/driver:

[ ] cordova [ ] mongodb [x] mssql [ ] mysql / mariadb [ ] oracle [ ] postgres [ ] cockroachdb [ ] sqlite [ ] sqljs [ ] react-native [ ] expo

TypeORM version:

[x] latest [ ] @next [ ] 0.x.x (or put your version here)

Steps to reproduce or a small repository showing the problem: I’m trying to update two values from a previously loaded entity. Entity:

@Entity({ name: 'USER' })
export class User extends AbstractBusinessReplicatedEntity {

    @PrimaryGeneratedColumn({ name: 'id_user' })
    id: number;

    @Column({ name: 'ds_email' })
    email: string;

    @Column({ name: 'bl_locked' })
    locked: boolean;

    @Column({ name: 'dt_password_expiration' })
    @Field()
    passwordExpiration: Date;

   ...
}

When loading and updating the user:

const user: User = await this.userRepository.findOne({
    where: {
      email,
    },
});
...
user.setPasswordExpiration(new Date());
user.setLocked(true);
await this.userRepository.save(user);

the generated query is trying to update user id:

UPDATE "USER" SET "bl_locked" = @1, "dt_password_expiration" = @2, "id_user" = @3 WHERE "id_user" = @0

As you can see I’m not using a partial object for user, as it should be possible to pass the object and Typeorm will deal with primary keys etc, or I’m I doing something wrong?
