This release removes a workaround introduced in Synapse 1.50.0 for Mjolnir compatibility. **This breaks compatibility with Mjolnir 1.3.1 and earlier. ([\#11700](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11700))**; Mjolnir users should upgrade Mjolnir before upgrading Synapse to this version.
This release also moves the location of the `synctl` script; see the [upgrade notes](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/upgrade.md#synctl-script-has-been-moved) for more details.
