javac --module-source-path and --patch-module do not work together

[Remi Forax]

I agree with that, but that's not my use case.
I want to add/override files to java.base (an existing module) with --patch-module when i compile several other modules with --module-source-path, i think this should be allowed, otherwise it will be hard to patch the JDK and see the effect on several modules.
