* AWS/GCE: Spread PetSet volume creation across zones, create GCE volumes in non-master zones ([#27553](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/27553), [@justinsb](https://github.com/justinsb))

when credentials for vCenter stored in a secret and Zones feature is in use. Zone labels setup moved to KCM component, kubelet skips this step during startup in such case. If credentials stored in cloud-provider config file as plaintext current behaviour does not change and no action required. For proper functioning `kube-system:vsphere-legacy-cloud-provider` should be allowed to update node object if vCenter credentials stored in secret and Zone feature used.

node ready. This is required because previously, if there were errors of communication with the cloud-provider on the cloud-controller-manager, nodes may have been declared Ready without having this field or the zone labels, and the information was never reconciled. The providerID and the zone labels are required for integrations like loadbalancers to work correctly. Users still can opt-out to this new behavior by setting the feature flag OptionalProviderID in the cloud-controller-manager. ([#12333...
