- Give terminal phase correctly to all pods that will not be restarted. 

  In particular, assign Failed phase to pods which are deleted while pending. Also, assign a terminal 
  phase (Succeeded or Failed, depending on the exit statuses of the pod containers) to pods which
  are deleted while running.
  

- NodeVolumeLimits implement the `PreFilter` extension point for skipping the Filter phase if the Pod doesn't use volumes with limits. ([#115398](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115398), [@tangwz](https://github.com/tangwz)) [SIG Scheduling]

* [alpha] A new `phase` subcommand supports performing only subtasks of the full `kubeadm init` flow. Combined with fine-grained configuration, kubeadm is now more easily consumable by higher-level provisioning tools like kops or GKE.

- If `kubeadm reset` finds no etcd member ID for the peer it removes during the `remove-etcd-member` phase, it continues immediately to other phases, instead of retrying the phase for up to 3 minutes before continuing.

running "kubeadm init" or "kubeadm join --control-plane". Previously, kubeadm only waited for the kube-apiserver. The "kubeadm join" workflow now includes a new experimental phase called "wait-control-plane". This phase was marked as non-experimental when WaitForAllControlPlaneComponents became GA. Accordingly, a "kubeadm init" phase "wait-control-plane" was also available once WaitForAllControlPlaneComponents became GA. These phases could be skipped if the user preferred not to wait for the control plane...

- Kubeadm: added `show-join-command` as a new separate phase at the end of `kubeadm init`. You can skip printing the join information by using `kubeadm init --skip-phases=show-join-command`. Executing only this phase on demand will throw an error because the phase needs dependencies such as bootstrap tokens to be pre-populated.

- `kubeadm`: removed leftover disclaimer that could be seen in the `kubeadm init phase certs` command help screen, since the "certs" phase of "init" is no longer alpha. ([#121172](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/121172), [@SataQiu](https://github.com/SataQiu))
