- Added metrics for volume reconstruction during kubelet startup. ([#115965](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115965), [@jsafran...

- Sped up kubelet start time by executing an immediate runtime and node status update when the Kubelet sees that it has a CIDR. ([#67031](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67031), [@krzysztof-jastrzebski](https://github.com/krzysztof-jastrzebski))

- Fix kubelet to properly log when a container is started. Previously, kubelet may log that container is dead and was restarted when it was actually started for the first time. This behavior only happened on pods with initContainers and regular containers. ([#91469](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/91469), [@rata](https://github.com/rata))...

- Fixed a bug that the kubelet cannot start on BtrfS. ([#98042](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/98042), [@gjkim42](https://github.com/gjkim42)) [SIG Node]

- kubelet: Fix - the volume manager didn't check the device mount state in the actual state of the world before marking the volume as detached. It may cause a pod to be stuck in the Terminating state due to the above issue when it was deleted.
