You must update vmnet with vmware-any-any-update93 patch (http://platan.vc.cvut.cz/ftp/pub/vmware). sk_alloc() function changed type of its arguments, and unfortunately this causes only compile-time warning, which you did not notice, but resulting module crashes kernel as now mandatory argument is passed in as '0'.
You should report problems related to the VMware at the VMware community forums, http://www.vmware.com/community/index.jspa. Most of peoples on LKML does not care about these opensource modules. Petr Vandrovec
