Prior to 1.17 and for existing nodes created by `kubeadm init` where kubelet client certificate rotation is desired, you must modify `/etc/kubernetes/kubelet.conf` to point to the PEM symlink for rotation:

* CRI now defines mounting behavior. If the host path doesn't exist, the runtime should return an error. If the host path is a symlink, the runtime should follow the symlink and mount the real destination to the container. ([#61460](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/61460), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer))

### SIG OpenStack

* Add /bin/mkfifo symlink to bazel build for busybox, so that CI builds have /bin/tee ([#59268](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/59268), [@justinsb](https://github.com/justinsb))

- `kube-apiserver` updated:

* Fixed pod cleanup when /var/lib/kubelet is a symlink. ([#68741](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/68741), [@jsafrane](https://github.com/jsafrane))

* Fix pods failing to start when subPath is a dangling symlink from kubelet point of view, which can happen if it is running inside a container ([#48555](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/48555), [@redbaron](https://github.com/redbaron))
