The knowledgebase article referenced in the VMWare Server wiki article:

http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1006427

is the best source as far as I can tell.  This is because VMWare keep
the contents up-to-date.  As suggested in there, you may want to try
the 5.4 kernel -164 (already available for CentOS) without using
clocksource or divider= options.  This kernel has patches that were
offered by VMWare developers to address the time drift issues.
