This mostly looks good.  I’d like to see an updated webrev after you sync with JDK-8173608.  I believe you can revert test/sun/management/jdp and test/sun/management/jmxremote tests change and ConnectorBootstrap.java as you noted.  Also you can run jdeps —-check on java.rmi, java.management, and jdk.management.agent to update its requires and qualified exports.  java.management should no longer require java.rmi and the qualified exports from java.rmi is not needed.

java.management.rmi module-info.java
  32  * @see javax.management.remote.rmi

This @see is not needed.  This package is listed in the exported packages table.

JMXConnectorFactory.java
   I like the ProviderFinder approach to look up the custom providers and platform providers; and shared code used by both JMXConnectorFactory and JMXConnectorServerFactory which is good.

   Nit: line 481-491 - this is javadoc and probably /* .. */ comment block is more appropriate here.

Yes.

Hope there will be a bulk @modules cleanup some time.
