  and it could end up Pods rejected by Extenders stuck in unschedulable pod pool in 5min in the worst-case scenario.

- Added a return value to `QueueingHint` to indicate an error. If `QueueingHint` returns an error,
  the scheduler logs it and treats the event as a `QueueAfterBackoff` so that
  the Pod won't be stuck in the unschedulable pod pool. ([#119290](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119290), [@carlory](https://github.com/carlory))
