Unable to start 'vmware-workstation-server' in Ubuntu 12.04.4, service crashes/panics and causes backtrace

Operating System Ubuntu 12.04.4

uname -a

Linux server 3.8.0-35-generic #52~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 30 17:24:40 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

VMware Workstation

10.0.0 build-1295980

I recently ran into a problem that I know never originally existed with this machine, that doesn't let me create shared VM's or keep virtual machines running as a service. I went to check the vmware services, and noticed that vmware-workstation-server wasn't running.

When I manually start the service and check to see if it is still running, I am then told that it started but is no longer running. So I checked syslog and  noticed the following output:
