- The Kubernetes apiserver now emits a warning message for Pods with a null labelSelector in podAffinity or topologySpreadConstraints. The null labelSelector means "match none". Using it in podAffinity or topologySpreadConstraint could lead to unintended behavior. ([#117025](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117025), [@sanposhiho](https://github.com/sanposhiho))...

- Added multiplication functionality to `Quantity`. ([#117411](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117411), [@tenzen-y](https://github.com/tenzen-y))
- Added new feature gate called `RuntimeClassInImageCriApi` to address `kubelet` changes needed for KEP 4216.
  Noteable changes:
  1. Populate new `RuntimeHandler` field in CRI's `ImageSpec` struct during image pulls from container runtimes.

- For raw block CSI volumes on Kubernetes, kubelet was incorrectly calling CSI NodeStageVolume for every single "map" (i.e. raw block "mount") operation for a volume already attached to the node. This PR ensures it is only called once per volume per node. ([#112403](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/112403), [@akankshakumari393](https://github.com/akankshakumari393)) [SIG Storage]

- Remove rescheduler since scheduling DS pods by default scheduler is moving to beta. ([#67687](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67687), [@Lion-Wei](https://github.com/Lion-Wei))
- kubeadm: make sure pre-pulled kube-proxy image and the one specified in its daemon set manifest are the same ([#67131](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67131), [@rosti](https://github.com/rosti))
