Description
The java.security file w/o a suffix in the source repo only applies to linux. Adding a "-linux" suffix will help avoid accidental issues where updates are made to the java.security file and not the other OS-specific files (java.security-macosx, java.security-solaris, java.security-windows). 
Comments
Verified file name change and Makefile changes against /java/re/jdk/8/promoted/latest/ws/jdk
