Kernel 6.5 is out, and brief details are here:  https://lkml.org/lkml/2023/8/27/348

The latest NVIDIA driver is OK, and can be found here:  https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/210649/en-us/

The workaround/fix for VMware 17.0.2 is also OK, as far as I can tell (briefly tested with Win11 client..) and can be found here:   https://github.com/mkubecek/vmware-host-modules/tree/tmp/workstation-17.0.2-k6.5
As previously mentioned, this is still classified as a temporary fix/workaround, and may be changed in the future..
