Answer 1

For EF Core 2 I implemented a solution like this:

var files = context.Files.AsNoTracking()
                         .IgnoreProperty(f => f.Report)
                         .ToList();

The base idea is to turn for example this query:

SELECT [f].[Id], [f].[Report], [f].[CreationDate]
FROM [File] AS [f]

into this:

SELECT [f].[Id], '' as [Report], [f].[CreationDate]
FROM [File] AS [f]
