[Bug 1500581] Re: open-vm-tools-dkms fails to build on kernel 4.2 (Wily Werewolf) [error: implicit declaration of function ‘nd_set_link’]

I have removed the patch from comment #4.  Running with the vmhgfs
driver from the 9.10.2 code can result in data corruption.  The backport
of the driver from 10.0.0 to 9.10.3 resolves the data corruption issue
as well as addressing the kernel compilation failures for 4.1 and 4.2
kernels.

As noted in comment #7, the 9.10.3 code has been tested by VMWare
against 15.10 with the 4.2.0-16 kernel.
