feature gate `UnversionedKubeletConfigMap` to GA and locked it to `true` by default. The kubelet related ConfigMap and RBAC rules are now locked to have a simplified naming `*kubelet-config` instead of the legacy naming `*kubelet-config-x.yy`, where `x.yy` was the version of the control plane. If you have previously used the old naming format with `UnversionedKubeletConfigMap=false`, you must manually copy the config map from `kube-system/kubelet-config-x.yy` to `kube-system/kubelet-config` before...

- API paging is now enabled by default in k8s.io/apiserver recommended options, and in k8s.io/sample-apiserver ([#77278](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/77278), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

* Limit use of tags when calling EC2 API to prevent API throttling for very large clusters ([#76749](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/76749), [@mcrute](https://github.com/mcrute))

- `kubectl run --env` no longer supports CSV parsing. To provide multiple environment
  variables, use the `--env` flag multiple times instead. Example: `--env ONE=1 --env TWO=2` instead of `--env ONE=1,TWO=2`.

- Removed deprecated command `kubectl stop`.

- Kubectl can now use http caching for the OpenAPI schema. The cache
  directory can be configured by passing the `--cache-dir` command line flag to kubectl.

- Fix: Mount point may become local without calling NodePublishVolume after node rebooting. ([#119923](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119923), [@cvvz](https://github.com/cvvz)) [SIG Node and Storage]

graduated the `UnversionedKubeletConfigMap` feature gate to Beta and enabled the feature by default. This implies that 1) for new clusters kubeadm will start using the `kube-system/kubelet-config` naming scheme for the kubelet ConfigMap and RBAC rules, instead of the legacy `kubelet-config-x.yy` naming. 2) during upgrade, kubeadm will only write the new scheme ConfigMap and RBAC objects. To disable the feature you can pass `UnversionedKubeletConfigMap: false` in the kubeadm config for new clusters....
