    * Ran regression tests (no zone) and they passed.

- Kube-apiserver --help flag help is now printed in sections. ([#64517](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/64517), [@sttts](https://github.com/sttts))
- Azure managed disks now support availability zones and new parameters `zoned`, `zone` and `zones` are added for AzureDisk storage class. ([#66553](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/66553), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer)) Courtesy of SIG Azure

- The new `-gce-zones` flag on the `e2e.test` binary instructs tests that check for information about how the cluster interacts with the cloud to limit their queries to the provided zone list. If not specified, the current behavior of asking the cloud provider for all available zones in multi zone clusters is preserved.

### VMware

- SAML token delegation (required for Zones support in vSphere) is now supported ([#78876](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/78876), [@dougm](https://github.com/dougm))
- vSphere SAML token auth is now supported when using Zones ([#75515](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/75515), [@dougm](https://github.com/dougm))

    * regions ("failure-domain.beta.kubernetes.io/region") in favor of their GA equivalents:
    * "topology.kubernetes.io/zone" and "topology.kubernetes.io/region".

- Updates docs and guidance on cloud provider InstancesV2 and Zones interface for external cloud providers:
  - removes experimental warning for InstancesV2
  - document that implementation of InstancesV2 will disable calls to Zones

### StatefulSet

* Fix zone placement heuristics so that multiple mounts in a StatefulSet pod are created in the same zone ([#40910](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/40910), [@justinsb](https://github.com/justinsb))
