vmtoolsd.service leaves tmp dir behind

[dulili]

Describe the bug

When stopping vmtoolsd.service (or rebooting the system) the service leaves a /tmp/vmware-root_ directory behind. If a system is rebooted often /tmp will contain many stray vmware-root temp dirs.

Reproduction steps

1. Start the vmtoolsd service in the rhel guest
2. Stop the vmtoolsd service
3. Check the tmp dir
   ...

Expected behavior

When stopping vmtoolsd.service (or rebooting the system) the service not leaves a /tmp/vmware-root directory behind

Can you specify the Linux distro and version information,
If you have the open-vm-tools version that is of interest too.

Thank you.
