(aws_eks): Using the default cluster role triggers a cluster health issue

[Gum-Christopher-bah]

Describe the bug

Creating a new cluster with no user created role passed triggers a health event with the following message.

Hello,

Amazon EKS detected cluster health issues in your AWS account 1234567890.

The following is a list of affected clusters with their cluster arns, cluster health status and corresponding cluster health issues(s):
arn:aws:eks:us-east-1:1234567890:cluster/my-cluster : IMPAIRED : Your cluster is not using the Amazon EKS service-linked-role. We couldnt assume the role associated with your cluster to perform required Amazon EKS management operations. Check the role exists and has the required trust policy.

It seems like the role still works for normal operations, but the new observability checks do not play nicely with it.

If you go into the console, under ClusterHealth issues, it will take you to the dashboard showing the problem. It is very possible that this may have been a fluke, I haven't been able to reproduce the issue

I didn't see that for now. Will keep watching it.
