After Update Vmware Workstation to v. 15.5.0 multiple VMs crashes with: unrecoverable error: (vmx) Unexpected signal: 11.

  Hi,

I have many VMs (Ubuntu-Bionic, Xenial, KDE Neon) sporadically crashes after Update to v. 15.5.0. If I go rollback to v. 15.1.0 all VMs are running without Errors. I have tested in two Bionic Host OS, the same result. The Display Settings of a VM are default (Accelerate 3D Grafics and 768 MB Grafics Memory, open-vm-tools, open-vm-tools-desktop are installed in Guests.

In vmware.log:
