Kubelet restart process seems to get a bit slower recently. From running
the gpu_device_plugin e2e_node test on GCE, I saw it took ~37 seconds
for kubelet to start CM DeviceManager after it restarts, and then took
~12 seconds for the gpu device plugin to re-register. As the result,
this e2e_node test fails because the current 10 sec waiting time is too
small. Restarting a container also seems to get slower that it sometimes
exceeds the current 2 min waiting time in ensurePodContainerRestart().
This change increase both waiting time to 5 min to leave enough space
on slower machines.

azure: Move configuration of resource group in storage class.
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
This moves configuration of Azure resource group into storage class. Users can't configure dynamic provisioning in PVCs, because that makes the PVC not portable to other Kubernetes installations, possibly on other clouds.

Duplicated masq rules are created by current implementation:
-A KUBE-NODE-PORT -m comment --comment "mark MASQ for
externaltrafficpolicy=cluster" -j KUBE-MARK-MASQ
-A KUBE-NODE-PORT -j KUBE-MARK-MASQ
The last one is always there. So the one inside if statement could
just be removed.

Resolve potential devicePath symlink when MapVolume in containerized kubelet
**What this PR does / why we need it**: Ensures local block volumes will work in case kubelet is running in a container
**Which issue(s) this PR fixes** *(optional, in `fixes #<issue number>(, fixes #<issue_number>, ...)` format, will close the issue(s) when PR gets merged)*:
Fixes#65445
**Special notes for your reviewer**: Code is mostly plumbing. If there is a better way to do it, let me know :)
I assume there will be e2e tests for the non-containerized case. I will need to test the containerized case myself, which may take a while.

fix azure disk creation issue when specifying external resource group
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
fix azure disk creation issue when specifying external resource group, after azure disk creation succeeded, it fails to get azure disk state since it's still using original resource group
**Which issue(s) this PR fixes** *(optional, in `fixes #<issue number>(, fixes #<issue_number>, ...)` format, will close the issue(s) when PR gets merged)*:
Fixes#65515
**Special notes for your reviewer**:
Together with https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/65443, this feature has been done, I will cherry-pick to prior versions later.
So in the end, we have two ways to make azure disk dynamic provision under an external resource group
- specify `resourcegroup` parameter in azure disk storage class
```
kind: StorageClass
apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1
metadata:
name: hdd
provisioner: kubernetes.io/azure-disk
parameters:
skuname: Standard_LRS
kind: managed
cachingmode: None
resourcegroup: USER-SPECIFIED-RG
```
- specify `volume.beta.kubernetes.io/resource-group` in PVC annotations
```
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
name: pvc-azuredisk
annotations:
volume.beta.kubernetes.io/resource-group: "USER-SPECIFIED-RG"
spec:
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
resources:
requests:
storage: 1Gi
storageClassName: hdd
```
**Release note**:
```

Prepare local volumes via hostexec pod instead of SSH
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
Prepare local volumes via hostexec pod. SSH access may be removed in future.

Fixes#64853
**Special notes for your reviewer**:
For each test, launch a pod for each node to setup volumes when needed.
It uses `nsenter` to enter into host mount namespace to run commands.
Why using `nsenter` command:
- migrate to use hostexec pod (baseimage: alpine:3.6) busybox `losetup` is hard
- alpine does not contain mkfs.ext4 command
- easier to setup local volumes (no need to mount /tmp, /mnt, /dev/, /sys directories)
- only require hostexec pod contains `nsenter` command
