strategicmerge patchMergeKey for VolumeMounts was changed from "name" to "mountPath".  This was necessary because the name field refers to the name of the Volume, and is not a unique key for the VolumeMount.  Multiple VolumeMounts will have the same Volume name if mounting the same volume more than once.  The "mountPath" is verified to be unique and can act as the mergekey.
