Description of problem:
When deleting a namespace containing the BMH (used in assisted-installer), the HostFirmwareComponents CR for a BMH gets removed before the BMH is completely deprovisioned.
This leaves the BMH stuck in deprovisioning.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Using OCP 4.18.26
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
- Create a BMH with inspection enabled and automatedCleaningMode set to metadata
- Create an InfraEnv in the same NS
- Once the BMH is in state provisioning, delete the namespace
Actual results:
BMH is stuck in state deprovisioning.

Expected results:
BMH is deprovisioned and deleted cleanly
Additional info:
Based on the logs, I guess the hostfirmwarecomponent CR was created originally and because the namespace is wiped in one go, it gets removed prematurely.
