[7u6] request for approval, 7153184: NullPointerException when calling SSLEngineImpl.getSupportedCipherSuites

[Alan Bateman]

Xuelei - can you hold off a day or two before pushing this to jdk7u-dev. 
I think that jdk8/tl picked up a problem last Friday, including one or 
two http server tests failing with an NPE in 
SSLSocketImpl.getEnabledCipherSuites. I think it would be good to track 
down these issues first, just in case they are a side effect of this fix.

-Alan.
