VMware workstation 9.0 / player 5.0

It seems that VMware released a new major version and they fixed, again, things addressed by the previous patches only there (asking so people to buy a new version again, in case of workstation). So all the previous patches are not needed for these anymore on newer kernel, except one little patch provided here. It seems to give issues on 3.5+ kernels after some changes to the exception tables.
