We need to release note that nodeports are not working on 2022 due to a windows kernel bug.

Upstream tracking issue for this bug:
microsoft/Windows-Containers#204

There are two issues being tracked in the upstream issue:

With Overlay: It's an OS issue. Bug is understood and working on backport to WS2022.
With L2bridge: the bug only occurs when WinDSR is enabled. Investigating in progress.

This was release-noted in the 2.6.4 release

Known Issues in Windows

Experimental Support for RKE2 Provisioning tech preview for Windows will only work on v1.22 and up of RKE2. End users should not use v1.21.x of RKE2 for any RKE2 cluster that will have Windows worker nodes. This is due to an https://github.com/rancher/windows/issues/131#issuecomment-1007792897 that was not backported to the minor version of Calico (3.19.x) that is present in v1.21.x of RKE2. See https://github.com/rancher/windows/issues/131.
When upgrading Windows nodes in RKE2 clusters via the Rancher UI, Windows worker nodes will require a reboot after the upgrade is completed.
CSI Proxy for Windows will now work in an air-gapped environment.
NodePorts do not work on Windows Server 2022 in RKE2 clusters due to a Windows kernel bug. See https://github.com/rancher/windows/issues/159.

@Jono-SUSE-Rancher This issue was for the 2.6.4 release. Can we close this out? If we need one for the 2.6.5 release, we should create a new issue.
