RTM jtreg tests failing due to unnamed module unable to access class jdk.internal.misc.Unsafe

On CPUs with RTM support (x64 and PPC64) the following tests are failing:

FAILED: compiler/rtm/locking/TestRTMAbortRatio.java
FAILED: compiler/rtm/locking/TestRTMAbortThreshold.java
FAILED: compiler/rtm/locking/TestRTMAfterNonRTMDeopt.java

with similar a message:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalAccessError: class jdk.test.lib.Utils (in unnamed module @0x5c7fa833) cannot access class jdk.internal.misc.Unsafe (in module java.base) because module
java.base does not export jdk.internal.misc to unnamed module @0x5c7fa833

A possible workaround (although by no means a correct solution) is to export jdk.internal.misc to the world in the java.base:

The issue is not reproducible on CPUs without RTM support, where the above-mentioned tests pass just fine, since the following check exists:
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/hs-comp/file/9a47ecd3eeb9/test/lib/jdk/test/lib/cli/CommandLineOptionTest.java#l515

which, by its turn, depends upon a CPU feature check:
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/hs-comp/hotspot/file/64840dbba932/test/compiler/testlibrary/rtm/predicate/SupportedCPU.java#l36

The issue can be reproduced using any RTM jtreg test, for instance the TestRTMAbortRatio.java:
