### Garbage Collector

- Fixed a bug in the garbage collector controller which could block indefinitely due to a cache sync failure. This fix allows the garbage collector to eventually continue garbage collecting other resources if a given resource cannot be listed or watched. Any objects in the unsynced resource type with owner references with `blockOwnerDeletion: true` will not be known to the garbage collector. Use of `blockOwnerDeletion` has always been best-effort and...

* Finalizers are now honored on custom resources, and on other resources even when garbage collection is disabled via the apiserver flag `--enable-garbage-collector=false` ([#51469](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51469), [@ironcladlou](https://github.com/ironcladlou))

* Add a NodeCondition "NetworkUnavailable" to prevent scheduling onto a node until the routes have been created  ([#26415](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/26415), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t))
* Add garbage collector into kube-controller-manager ([#26341](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/26341), [@caesarxuchao](https://github.com/caesarxuchao))
