Same issue here with 4.16.14. Heaven forbid we run the latest stable kernel!
I'm using Gentoo, but this should be applicable elsewhere. You'll want the patches here:
https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/vmware.git/tree/app-emulation/vmware-modules/files
Extract the tar files in /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source
Apply the 308-* patches. Most will apply fine, some will reject, don't worry about those.
Retar up the files.
# vmware-modconfig --console --install-all
Let me know if you require any assistance getting this working.

Can you please detail the patch command(s) used to apply the 308-* patches after expanding them to /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source?
Thank you
