Description
Found a possible issue in [infinispan/infinispan-operator](https://www.github.com/infinispan/infinispan-operator) at [pkg/controller/infinispan/infinispan_controller.go](https://github.com/infinispan/infinispan-operator/blob/1c8a1e2b43fbb0ed10079a2c1ea490f87bf89a1e/pkg/controller/infinispan/infinispan_controller.go#L551-L560)
Below is the message reported by the analyzer for this snippet of code. Beware that the analyzer only reports the first issue it finds, so please do not limit your consideration to the contents of the below message.

Click here to show the 10 line(s) of Go which triggered the analyzer.
```go
for _, pvc := range pvcs.Items {
if !metav1.IsControlledBy(&pvc, infinispan) {
controllerutil.SetControllerReference(infinispan, &pvc, r.scheme)
pvc.OwnerReferences[0].BlockOwnerDeletion = pointer.BoolPtr(false)
err := r.client.Update(context.TODO(), &pvc)
if err != nil {
return err
}
}
}

No path was found through the callgraph that could lead to a function which writes a pointer argument.
No path was found through the callgraph that could lead to a function which passes a pointer to third-party code.
root signature {IsControlledBy 2} was not found in the callgraph; reference was passed directly to third-party code

Research direction
Start with pkg/controller/infinispan/infinispan_controller.go around lines 551-560 and inspect the range over pvcs.Items, IsControlledBy, SetControllerReference, and client.Update. Determine whether the pointer usage can affect the intended PVC or owner reference, then verify the behavior against the analyzer's finding. Done means the finding is classified with a justified resolution and any required change is covered by project tests.
