Load cluster by executing kube burner cluster density test with JOB_ITERATIONS=75 to create namespaces, pods and other resources and then upgrade to 4.11.12 z stream.

1. Create a 20 worker node cluster using 4.10.39 release. 
2. Run kube burner cluster density test with JOB_ITERATIONS=75 to create namespaces, pods and other resources (See https://github.com/cloud-bulldozer/e2e-benchmarking/blob/master/workloads/kube-burner/README.md)
3. After test is executed, upgrade cluster to 4.11.12
4. Notice cluster operators reported as degraded.
