- Fixes an issue that can result in namespaced custom resources being orphaned when their namespace is deleted, if the CRD defining the custom resource is removed concurrently with namespaces being deleted, then recreated.

### API Change

- Fixed a bug where CEL expressions in CRD validation rules would incorrectly compute a high estimated cost for functions that return strings, lists or maps.
  The incorrect cost was evident when the result of a function was used in subsequent operations. ([#119810](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119810), [@jpbetz](https://github.com/jpbetz)) [SIG API Machinery, Auth and Cloud Provider]

* Fix for Pod stuck in ContainerCreating with error "Volume is not yet attached according to node". ([#50806](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/50806), [@verult](https://github.com/verult))
