Setting - allowedSourceRanges: [] does not work

Please, answer some short questions which should help us to understand your problem / question better?

Which image of the operator are you using? registry.opensource.zalan.do/acid/postgres-operator:v1.9.0
Where do you run it - cloud or metal? Kubernetes or OpenShift? metal - OSS Upstream Kubernetes
Are you running Postgres Operator in production? no
Type of issue? Bug report

The services being created to not honor the empty list when assigned to allowedSourceRanges

This causes issues on bare metal systems that do not handle the loadBalancerSourceRanges entry in the service manifest.

If I set the following:

allowedSourceRanges: []

It is always replaced by:

  loadBalancerSourceRanges:
    - 127.0.0.1/32

in the service for the database

Here is the yaml being applied:

apiVersion: acid.zalan.do/v1
kind: postgresql
metadata:
  namespace: "zalando-cluster-default"
  name: "zalando-cluster-default-db"
spec:
  teamId: "sas"
  enableMasterLoadBalancer: True
  enableReplicaLoadBalancer: False
  enableConnectionPooler: False
  enableReplicaConnectionPooler: False
  enableMasterPoolerLoadBalancer: False
  enableReplicaPoolerLoadBalancer: False
  numberOfInstances: 1
  allowedSourceRanges: []
  postgresql:
    version: "15"
    parameters:  # Expert section
      max_prepared_transactions: "1024"
      max_connections: "1024"
      log_statement: "all"
  volume:
    size: "50Gi"
    storageClass: "default"

Some general remarks when posting a bug report:

Please, check the operator, pod (Patroni) and postgresql logs first. When copy-pasting many log lines please do it in a separate GitHub gist together with your Postgres CRD and configuration manifest.
If you feel this issue might be more related to the Spilo docker image or Patroni, consider opening issues in the respective repos.
