I have been using this repository for building VMWare modules

I tried that as well, but that fails in a slightly different way:

and the Makefile in /usr/src/kernels/5.17.5-200.fc35.x86_64 is an
empty file, unlike in other kernel directories. I've reinstalled the
kerel-devel-5.17.5-200.fc35 package and that installed a Makefile with
actual contents which allowed me to rebuild the module.
Thanks for the help!
Cheers
