- Kubeadm: fix the bug that configurable KubernetesVersion not respected during kubeadm join ([#111022](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/111022), [@SataQiu](https://github.com/SataQiu)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]

* [kubelet] Introduce --protect-kernel-defaults flag to make the tunable behaviour configurable ([#27874](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/27874), [@ingvagabund](https://github.com/ingvagabund))

* Added configurable etcd initial-cluster-state to kube-up script ([#41320](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/41320), [@jszczepkowski](https://github.com/jszczepkowski))

    case.
*   Added `tf.sparse.from_dense` utility function.
*   Improved ragged tensor support in `TensorFlowTestCase`.
*   Makes the a-normal form transformation in Pyct configurable as to which
    nodes are converted to variables and which are not.
*   `ResizeInputTensor` now works for all delegates.
*   Add `EXPAND_DIMS` support to NN API delegate TEST: expand_dims_test

- Azure VMSS/VMSSVM clients now suppress requests on throttling ([#86740](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/86740), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer)) [SIG Cloud Provider]
- Azure cloud provider cache TTL is configurable, list of the azure cloud provider is as following:
  - "availabilitySetNodesCacheTTLInSeconds"
  - "vmssCacheTTLInSeconds"
  - "vmssVirtualMachinesCacheTTLInSeconds"
  - "vmCacheTTLInSeconds"

  - Don't treat nodes created by virtual kubelet as nodes from non-autoscaled node groups
  - Remove redundant logging around calculating node utilization
  - Add configurable `--network` and `--rm` flags for docker in `Makefile`
  - Subtract DaemonSet pods' requests from node allocatable in the denominator while computing node utilization
