* Added mount options support for azure disk. For example:

```
kind: StorageClass
apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1
metadata:
  name: hdd
provisioner: kubernetes.io/azure-disk
mountOptions:
  - barrier=1
  - acl
parameters:
  skuname: Standard_LRS
  kind: Managed
  fstype: ext3
```

- `tryUnmount` now respects `mounter.withSafeNotMountedBehavior` ([#114736](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/114736), [@andyzhangx](https://github.com/andyzhangx))
- The encryption response from KMS v2 plugins is now validated earlier at DEK generation time instead of waiting until an encryption is performed. ([#116877](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/116877), [@enj](https://github.com/enj)) [SIG API Machinery and Auth]

### Bug or Regression

- Removed a warning around Linux user namespaces and kernel version. If the feature gate `UserNamespacesSupport` was enabled, the kubelet previously warned when detecting a Linux kernel version earlier than 6.3.0. User namespace support on Linux typically does still need kernel 6.3 or newer, but it can work in older kernels too. ([#131785](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/131785), [@rata](https://github.com/rata)) [SIG Node]

- Aggregated roles no longer include write access to `EndpointSlices`. This rolls back part of a change that was introduced earlier in the Kubernetes 1.22 cycle. ([#103703](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/103703), [@robscott](https://github.com/robscott))

<p>
Unlike regular variable declarations, a short variable declaration may <i>redeclare</i>
variables provided they were originally declared earlier in the same block
(or the parameter lists if the block is the function body) with the same type,
and at least one of the non-<a href="#Blank_identifier">blank</a> variables is new.

- Feature gates that graduated to GA in 1.23 or earlier and were unconditionally enabled have been removed: CSIServiceAccountToken, ConfigurableFSGroupPolicy, EndpointSlice, EndpointSliceNodeName, EndpointSliceProxying, GenericEphemeralVolume, IPv6DualStack, IngressClassNamespacedParams, StorageObjectInUseProtection,...
