Actually I wonder if the module-aware service loader should not accept 
null loader in module mode as the service dependences are declared in 
the module-info.   I know you are thinking about adding new API for 
modules to use.  Since there are existing code that calls 
ServiceLoader.load with a null loader, using caller's loader is fine for 
now and the services work will revisit this.
