- DisableAvailabilitySetNodes is added to avoid VM list for VMSS clusters. It should only be used when vmType is "vmss" and all the nodes (including control plane nodes) are VMSS virtual machines.

- Fix invalid VMSS updates due to incorrect cache ([#89002](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/89002), [@ArchangelSDY](https://github.com/ArchangelSDY)) [SIG Cloud Provider]

- Azure: fix concurreny issue in lb creation ([#89604](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/89604), [@aramase](https://github.com/aramase)) [SIG Cloud Provider]
- Azure: per VMSS VMSS VMs cache to prevent throttling on clusters having many attached VMSS ([#93107](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/93107), [@bpineau](https://github.com/bpineau)) [SIG Cloud Provider]

  - Add optional jitter on initial VMSS VM cache refresh, keep the refreshes spread over time
  - Serve from cache for the whole period of ongoing throttling
  - Fix unwanted VMSS VMs cache invalidations
  - Enforce setting the number of retries if cloud provider backoff is enabled
  - Don't update capacity if VMSS provisioning state is updating
  - Support allocatable resources overrides via VMSS tags
