- Fixed `JobTrackingWithFinalizers` that:
  - was declaring a job finished before counting all the created pods in the status
  - was leaving pods with finalizers, blocking pod and job deletions
   `JobTrackingWithFinalizers` is still disabled by default. ([#109486](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/109486), [@alculquicondor](https://github.com/alculquicondor))

* StatefulSet: The deprecated `pod.alpha.kubernetes.io/initialized` annotation for interrupting StatefulSet Pod management is now ignored. If you were setting it to `true` or leaving it unset, no action is required. However, if you were setting it to `false`, be aware that previously-dormant StatefulSets may become active after upgrading.

- Fix scoring for `NodeResourcesMostAllocated` and `NodeResourcesBalancedAllocation` plugins when nodes have containers with no requests. This was leaving to under-utilization of small nodes. ([#102925](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/102925), [@alculquicondor](https://github.com/alculquicondor))

- Add limited lines to log when having tail option ([#93920](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/93920), [@zhouya0](https://github.com/zhouya0)) [SIG Node]
- Avoid systemd-logind loading configuration warning ([#97950](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/97950), [@wzshiming](https://github.com/wzshiming)) [SIG Node]

- Since golang 1.17 both net.ParseIP and net.ParseCIDR rejects leading zeros in the dot-decimal notation of IPv4 addresses,
  Kubernetes will keep allowing leading zeros on IPv4 address to not break the compatibility.
  IMPORTANT: Kubernetes interprets leading zeros on IPv4 addresses as decimal, users must not rely on parser alignment to not being impacted by the associated security advisory:

A partial type argument list cannot be empty; at least the first argument must be present.
The list is a prefix of the full list of type arguments, leaving the remaining arguments
to be inferred. Loosely speaking, type arguments may be omitted from "right to left".

### Bug or Regression

- Fix JobTrackingWithFinalizers that:
  - was declaring a job finished before counting all the created pods in the status
  - was leaving pods with finalizers, blocking pod and job deletions
  

- Fixed clearing of rate-limiter for the queue of checks for cleaning stale pod disruption conditions. The bug could result in the PDB synchronization updates firing too often or the pod disruption cleanups taking too long to happen. ([#114770](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/114770),...
