      * The Manila CSI Driver Operator automatically creates an OpenShift storage class for each available Manila share type. As part of this operation, the Operator queries the Manila API. Previously, the Operator cached the cloud credentials, which resulted in authentication issues when these credentials were rotated. Now, the Operator always uses the latest credentials.

      Description of problem:

      After all cluster operators have reconciled after the password rotation, we can still see authentication failures in keystone (attached screenshot of splunk query)
      

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

      Environment:
      - OpenShift 4.12.10 on OpenStack 16
      - The cluster is managed via RHACM, but password rotation shall be done via "regular"  OpenShift means.

      How reproducible:

      Rotated the OpenStack credentials according to the documentation [1]
      
      [1] https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.12/authentication/managing_cloud_provider_credentials/cco-mode-passthrough.html#manually-rotating-cloud-creds_cco-mode-passthrough 

      Additional info:

      - we can't trace back where these authentication failures come from - they do disappear after a cluster upgrade (so when nodes are rebooted and all pods are restarted which indicates that there's still a component using the old credentials)
      - The relevant technical integration points _seem_ to be working though (LBaaS, CSI, Machine API, Swift)
      

      What is the business impact? Please also provide timeframe information.

      - We cannot rely on splunk monitoring for authentication issues since it's currently constantly showing authentication errors - We cannot be entirely sure that everything works as expected since we don't know the component that doesn't seem to use the new credentials
