Currently the pods created by tekton fall under the nonterminating quota limits of OpenShift. This can create issues as generally builds should fall under the separate terminating quota limits.

More information here: https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.8/applications/quotas/quotas-setting-per-project.html

This categorization is controlled by the activeDeadlineSeconds parameter in the pod spec. Unfortunately, this is not able to be set as it is also explicitly filtered out: https://github.com/tektoncd/triggers/blob/48d891781dab03f168b7c55e330ea32e6e508a60/pkg/apis/triggers/v1beta1/event_listener_validation.go#L244
