## Dependencies

### Added

- Fix: avoid nil-pointer panic when checking the frontend IP configuration ([#101739](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/101739), [@nilo19](https://github.com/nilo19)) [SIG Cloud Provider]

- The "fake" clients generated by `client-gen` now have the same semantics on
  error as the real clients; in particular, a failed Get(), Create(), etc, no longer
  returns `nil`. (It now returns a pointer to a zero-valued object, like the real
  clients do.) This will break some downstream unit tests that were testing
  `result == nil` rather than `err != nil`, and in some cases may expose bugs
