I tried to install VMware Tools using your patches, because I was not able to install them unmodified. However I am not able to install them with the patches applied as well.
I am using VMware Player 5.0.4 which gives me VMwareTools-9.2.4-1398046.tar.gz. I tried to install them on a fresh Ubuntu 14.10 installation. uname -r gives me 3.16.0-23-generic.
I ran untar-and-patch-and-compile.sh on the VMware Tools and got following output:
=== Patching ./VMwareTools-9.2.4-1398046.tar.gz ...

The filesystem driver (vmhgfs module) is used only for the shared folder
feature. The rest of the software provided by VMware Tools is designed to work
independently of this feature.
If you wish to have the shared folders feature, you can install the driver by
running vmware-config-tools.pl again after making sure that gcc, binutils, make
and the kernel sources for your running kernel are installed on your machine.
These packages are available on your distribution's installation CD.

The fast network device driver (vmxnet module) is used only for our fast

If you wish to have the fast network driver enabled, you can install the driver

VMware automatic kernel modules enables automatic building and installation of
VMware kernel modules at boot that are not already present. By selecting yes,
you will be enabling this experimental feature. You can always disable this
feature by re-running vmware-config-tools.pl.

The configuration of VMware Tools 9.2.4 build-1398046 for Linux for this
running kernel completed successfully.
You must restart your X session before any mouse or graphics changes take
effect.
You can now run VMware Tools by invoking "/usr/bin/vmware-toolbox-cmd" from the
command line.
To enable advanced X features (e.g., guest resolution fit, drag and drop, and
file and text copy/paste), you will need to do one (or more) of the following:
1. Manually start /usr/bin/vmware-user
2. Log out and log back into your desktop session; and,
3. Restart your X session.
