- Kubeadm: during "join", don't re-add an etcd member if it already exists in the cluster. ([#92118](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/92118), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]

- Kubeadm: Fixed an issue where etcd member promotion failed with an error indicating the member was already promoted. ([#130782](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/130782), [@BernardMC](https://github.com/BernardMC))

- Kubeadm init phase certs now support the `--csr-only` option, simplifying custom CA creation.
- `kubeadm join --experimental-control-plane` now automatically adds a new etcd member for `local etcd` mode, further simplifying required tasks for HA clusters setup.
- Improvements were made to `kubeadm reset` related to cleaning  etcd and notifying the user about the state of iptables.

- If `kubeadm reset` finds no etcd member ID for the peer it removes during the `remove-etcd-member` phase, it continues immediately to other phases, instead of retrying the phase for up to 3 minutes before continuing.

* Upgrade to etcd client 3.3.17 to fix bug where etcd client does not parse IPv6 addresses correctly when members are joining, and to fix bug where failover on multi-member etcd cluster fails certificate check on DNS mismatch ([#83968](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/83968), [@jpbetz](https://github.com/jpbetz))
