Could not open mysql.plugin table: "Table 'mysql.plugin' doesn't exist". Some plugins may be not loaded

When trying to create a MariaDB instance on OpenShift using MariaDB Operator v0.35 or v0.36, the pod CrashLoopBackOffs and I get the following error in the pod logs:

Could not open mysql.plugin table: "Table 'mysql.plugin' doesn't exist". Some plugins may be not loaded

I used the same configuration with previous versions of MariaDB operator (e.g. 0.29, 0.30) and it worked just fine.
