- 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. ([#93790](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/93790), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))...

- Only declare Job as finished after removing all Pod finalizers to avoid orphan Pods ([#119160](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119160), [@alculquicondor](https://github.com/alculquicondor)) [SIG Apps and Testing]

- Enabled kube-controller-manager '--concurrent-job-syncs' flag works on orphan Pod processors ([#126567](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/126567), [@fusida](https://github.com/fusida)) [SIG Apps]

    * This eliminates the race conditions between the pod creation loop and the orphaned volumes loops. It also removes the unmount/detach from the `syncPod()` path so volume clean up never blocks the `syncPod` loop.
