app-emulation/vmware-modules: fix page accounting
Found a possibile problem with future vmware v14 products, at a certain point a
virtual machine remains without memory. See for example:
https://communities.vmware.com/thread/573281
https://superuser.com/questions/1255099/vmware-workstation-not-enough-physical-memory-since-last-update/1255963
To solve the issue I have inserted three of the patches available from
https://github.com/mkubecek/vmware-host-modules/commit/b50848c985f1
Thanks to mkubecek.
