/kind bug

What happened:

When deploying the openstack-manila-csi Helm package, the controller and node-plugin pods stuck in an Error state.

How to reproduce it:

helm upgrade  --install manila-csi cpo/openstack-manila-csi

Anything else we need to know?:

When I try with version 1.30.0, there are no issues. It deploys successfully.

Environment:
Kubernetes ❯ 1.26.6
manila-csi-plugin ❯ v1.31.0

I can't find any Kubernetes compatibility matrix. If there is one available, could you please share it? Has anyone encountered and resolved this issue?

@emreberber are you going to use manila CSI plugin with the Cephfs driver? Then you need to run the https://github.com/ceph/ceph-csi and point it to the --fwdendpoint=$(FWD_CSI_ENDPOINT).

basically manila CSI driver reads requests from the --endpoint=$(CSI_ENDPOINT), modifies these requests, and forwards them to NFS CSI plugin or Cephfs CSI plugin.

Thanks for your comment

I found out later. It was necessary to deploy Ceph CSI along with Manila CSI. I could not see if this requirement is written in the document.
