- Remove the deprecated metrics "scheduling_algorithm_preemption_evaluation_seconds" and "binding_duration_seconds", suggest to use "scheduler_framework_extension_point_duration_seconds" instead. ([#96447](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/96447), [@chendave](https://github.com/chendave)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle, Instrumentation, Scheduling...

* Fixes issue where an apiserver on 1.9 and controller-manager on 1.10 can cause volume provisioning and binding to fail. ([#71286](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/71286), [@msau42](https://github.com/msau42))

- Added a condition `NonStructuralSchema` to `CustomResourceDefinition` listing Structural Schema violations as defined in the [KEP](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/blob/master/keps/sig-api-machinery/20190425-structural-openapi.md). CRD authors should update their validation schemas to be structural in order to participate...

  - Clone `kubernetes/kubernetes` in `update-vendor.sh` shallowly, instead of fetching all revisions
  - Speed up binpacking by reducing the number of PreFilter calls (call once per pod instead of #pods*#nodes times)
  - Speed up finding unneeded nodes by 5x+ in very large clusters by reducing the number of PreFilter calls
  - Expose `--max-nodes-total` as a metric
  - Errors in `IncreaseSize` changed from type `apiError` to `cloudProviderError`

### SIG Apps

  * Marking a StorageClass as default makes it so that even a PersistentVolumeClaim without a StorageClass specified will trigger dynamic provisioning (instead of binding to an existing pool of PVs).
  * If you depend on the old behavior of volumes binding to existing pool of PersistentVolume objects then modify the StorageClass object and set `storageclass.beta.kubernetes.io/is-default-class` to `false`.

- Clear pod binding cache on bind error to make sure stale pod binding cache will not be used. ([#71212](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/71212), [@cofyc](https://github.com/cofyc))
