Description of problem:

There is an active OCS operator install that is stuck trying to install and OLM is complaining when it tries to delete catalog pods under openshift-marketplace:

ocs install status:
lastTransitionTime: "2021-05-26T21:42:51Z"
    lastUpdateTime: "2021-05-26T21:42:51Z"
    message: install timeout
    phase: Failed
    reason: InstallCheckFailed


Catalog source logs:

2021-05-27T17:04:57.517829141Z E0527 17:04:57.517756       1 queueinformer_operator.go:290] sync {"update" "openshift-marketplace/redhat-marketplace"} failed: couldn't ensure registry server - error ensuring updated catalog source pod: : error deleting duplicate catalog polling pod: redhat-marketplace-t9mzw: error deleting pod: redhat-marketplace-t9mzw: pods "redhat-marketplace-t9mzw" not found

But, there is no pod with that name:
