Hi,
It just means that the driver is considered common enough by Microsoft that it is now part of the standard inbox drivers. The driver is still maintained and produced by VMware. There's other drivers that also moved from vmware tools to Microsoft inbox such as the vmxnet3 driver. It is by no means maintained by Microsoft, they are just offering a distribution channel.
