What would you like to be added:

The pkg "k8s.io/utils/pointer" is deprecated starting from k8s.io/utils version v0.0.0-20240502163921-fe8a2dddb1d0 which is our current version in master. It is recommended to use the alternate pkg "k8s.io/utils/ptr" from here on.

Remove the deprecated package and use the recommended package for pointer related operations.

Check the release timeline for k8s.io/utils here

Why is this needed: The support for "k8s.io/utils/pointer" pkg will be removed going further as it is currently in deprecated state. So it's best to use the newly introduced pkg "k8s.io/utils/ptr" for pointer operations.
