Fix VMWare VM freezing bug by reverting #51066
**What this PR does / why we need it**: kube-controller-manager, VSphere specific: When the controller tries to attach a Volume to Node A that is already attached to Node B, Node A freezes until the volume is attached. Kubernetes continues to try to attach the volume as it thinks that it's 'multi-attachable' when it's not. #51066 is the culprit.

**Special notes for your reviewer**:
- Repro:
Vsphere installation, any k8s version from 1.8 and above, pod with attached PV/PVC/VMDK:
1. cordon the node which the pod is in
2. `kubectl delete po/[pod] --force --grace-period=0`
3. the pod is immediately rescheduled to a new node. Grab the new node from a `kubectl describe [pod]` and attempt to Ping it or SSH into it.
4. you can see that pings/ssh fail to reach the new node. `kubectl get node` shows it as 'NotReady'. New node is frozen until the volume is attached - usually 1 minute freeze for 1 volume in a low-load cluster, and many minutes more with higher loads and more volumes involved.
- Patch verification:
Tested a custom patched 1.9.10 kube-controller-manager with #51066 reverted and the above bug is resolved - can't repro it anymore. New node doesn't freeze at all, and attaching happens quite quickly, in a few seconds.
**Release note**:
