      Second migration plan with shared RDM disks fails when shared disk migration is disabled::
                                                                                      
      When migrating two VMs with shared RDM disks using copyoffload in separate migration plans, the second migration plan fails at the `ImageConversion` step if shared disk migration is disabled. After successfully migrating the first VM with shared disk migration enabled, creating a second migration plan with shared disk migration disabled incorrectly creates two populate pods—one for the OS disk and one for the shared RDM disk—instead of creating only the OS disk populate pod. This causes the second migration to fail.

      Description of problem:

      Migrating 2 VMs with a shared RDM disks in 2 different migration plans using copyoffload.
In the first plan I enabled the migration of shared disks and the VM was successfully migrated. 
After that, I created another migration plan to migrate the other VM, in this case I disabled migration of shared disks. The second plan creates 2 populate pods, one for the OS and the other for the shared RDM disk - even if the migration of shared disks was disabled. The second migration plan fails in ImageConversion step. Logs of virt-v2v container are attached.

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

      MTV IIB 2.11.0-37
OCP 4.20

      How reproducible:

      Always / N%

      Steps to Reproduce:

      1.

3.

      Actual results:

      Migration of the second VM fails

      Expected results:

      Only the populate pod for the OS disk should be created in the second migration plan when the option to enable shared disk migration is deselected. Both migration plans should succeed
