Kernel 5.17 has now been released, after an (extra) 5.17-rc8 last week..   Brief details are here: https://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/2203.2/04407.html

As expected, the latest VMware (16.2.3) with the latest patchset, and NVIDIA 510.54, compile and load/run OK..    VMware patchset by Michal Kubeček is at https://github.com/mkubecek/vmware-host-modules/tree/workstation-16.2.3
