Centrych open-vm-tools

PPA description

These packages have been modified to re-enable building of the vmhgfs kernel module, which is approximately 20-35% faster than the fuse implementation.

The module also builds under all HWE kernels for LTS releases.

To fix mount failures during boot when using the kernel module in /etc/fstab:

1. add "vmhgfs" to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules
2. execute: sudo update-initramfs -u -k all
