* vSphere cloud provider: vSphere cloud provider code refactoring ([#49164](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/49164), [@BaluDontu](https://github.com/BaluDontu))

- The in-tree cloud provider for vSphere has been deprecated and removed. Users are advised to utilize the external cloud provider and CSI driver available at https://github.com/kubernetes/cloud-provider-vsphere. ([#122937](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/122937), [@dims](https://github.com/dims))

- VSphere releases less than 7.0u2 are not supported for in-tree vSphere volume  as of Kubernetes v1.25. Please consider upgrading vSphere (both ESXi and vCenter)  to 7.0u2 or above. ([#111255](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/111255), [@divyenpatel](https://github.com/divyenpatel))

- Unlocked the `CSIMigrationvSphere` feature gate. The change allow users to continue using the in-tree vSphere driver,pending a vSphere CSI driver release that has with GA support for Windows, XFS, and raw block access.
