    @rhtyd @jburwell @karuturi I confirm the same issue with this PR as with 
'CLOUDSTACK-5922:Incorrect handling RHEL guests for 5.5 to 5.9
    When Os type is specified as Ubuntu 16.04

    and VM is started on VmWare it actually creates VM with OS type 'Other 
(64-bit)'

    The fix was to put a respective entry into 
vmware-base/src/com/cloud/hypervisor/vmware/util/VmwareGuestOsMapper.java

    Can we roll back this PR and make it right? An alternative path wold be to 
figure out why adding entries into tables is not good enough and why changes in 
the code is still required.
