Title:
  Move vmware related modules from extras into main kernel package

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in “open-vm-tools” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:

  net/vmw_vsock/vmw_vsock_vmci_transport.ko and net/vmw_vsock/vsock.ko
  are currently in linux-image-extra. Due to a sync of open-vm-tools and
  an open MIR on open-vm-tools, these modules are needed in the regular
  kernel.
