- Defining minimum required documentation from each cloud provider which includes (in collaboration with SIG Docs):
  - example manifests for the kube-apiserver, kube-controller-manager, kube-schedule, kubelet, and the cloud-controller-manager
  - labels/annotations that are consumed by any cloud specific controllers

- Remove the deprecated flag `--experimental-check-node-capabilities-before-mount`. With CSI now GA, there is a better alternative. Remove any use of  `--experimental-check-node-capabilities-before-mount` from your kubelet scripts or manifests. ([#104732](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/104732), [@mengjiao-liu](https://github.com/mengjiao-liu))

- Restores priority of static control plane pods in the cluster/gce/manifests control-plane manifests ([#89970](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/89970), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle and Node]

- Kubeadm: fixed a bug where the path of the manifest can not be specified when `kubeadm upgrade diff` specified a config file, and the `--api-server-manifest`, `--controller-manager-manifest` and `--scheduler-manifest` flags of `kubeadm upgrade diff` are marked as deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

* hyperkube

  * The hyperkube image has been slimmed down and no longer includes addon manifests and other various scripts. These were introduced for the now removed docker-multinode setup system. ([#44555](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/44555), [@luxas](https://github.com/luxas))

- `kubeadm`: speedup init by 0s or 20s. kubelet-start phase is now after etcd
  and control-plane phases, removing a race condition between kubelet looking for
  static pod manifests and kubeadm writing them. ([#117984](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117984), [@champtar](https://github.com/champtar))
