- Enabled mTLS encryption between etcd and kube-apiserver in GCE ([#70144](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/70144), [@wenjiaswe](https://github.com/wenjiaswe))
- Added `ResourceVersion` as a precondition for delete in order to ensure a delete fails if an unobserved change happens to an object. ([#74040](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/74040), [@ajatprabha](https://github.com/ajatprabha))

### Failing Test

- Fixes the `should receive events on concurrent watches in same order` conformance test to work properly on clusters that auto-create additional configmaps in namespaces ([#101950](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/101950), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt)) [SIG API Machinery and Testing]

- Filter published OpenAPI schema by making nullable, required fields non-required in order to avoid kubectl to wrongly reject null values. ([#85722](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/85722), [@sttts](https://github.com/sttts))
