Same issue here. Reboot afterwards for me causes panic during boot. Booting into rescue kernel & running "systemctl disable vmware-tools.service" allowed system to boot. The "vmware-tools-thinprint.service" is still enabled & is active after boot.
After system boots, running "systemctl start vmware-tools.service" causes immediate panic. Tried but was unable to capture kdump. Reboots into crash kernel, runs awhile, then boots back into normal kernel, but there is no crash file to be found. Enabling vmware tools debug logging generated two log files.

I'm facing the same issue while compiling and starting the vmware-tools service.
Same issue here. I believe it is caused by vmhgfs, because before upgrading to VMWare-Tools-9.9.3, the vmhgfs in VMWare-Tools-9.9.2 failed to compile, and there was no crash; after I manually fixed the compile errors, then it crashed the system. Hope this is helpful for you guys to debug.
Please try upgrading to VMWare-Tools-9.9.3.
Still failing with VMWare-Tools-9.9.3 and Linux kernel 4.0.5.
As per likan999's hunch, disabling vmhgfs worked around the issue for me.
I got same problem. after disable vmhgfs, it worked, but copy and paste can't work
Same issue here. Fedora 22, Kernel 4.0.8-300.fc22.x86_64, VMWare Tools 9.9.3-2759765.
Cent OS 2.6.32-431.11.2.el6.x86_64, ESXi 6. no issues with installing vmware-tools RPM's. i experience similar issue. please advise on how to disable "vmhgfs".
System hangs/panics on Fedora 22 (kernel 4.0) ./compile.sh installation
Suspected it was thinprint, disabled it in the vmware-configure-tools.pl script before using ./compile.sh but no joy.
Everything compiles and installs but panics at the end when
Starting vmware-tools (via systemctl)
Everything works fine on Fedora 21 with the 4.0 kernel
