JDK-8162379 - RSA premaster secret decryption error: java.security.ProviderException: Could not construct CipherSpi instance
Description
src/java.base/share/classes/sun/security/ssl/RSAClientKeyExchange.java:

When doing the debug printin:

                    System.out.println("The Cipher provider " +
                        cipher.getProvider().getName() +
                        " caused exception: " + iue.getMessage());

cipher.getProvider() may throw an exception, which will cause the failOver branch get skipped.
