Before password-less PKCS12 keystores are supported, certificates in a PKCS12 file are always encrypted. Therefore if one loads the keystore with a null pass, it contains `PrivateKeyEntry`s without certificates. This has always been awkward (and most likely useless) so when JDK-8076190 introduced the password-less feature I also added a line to remove such an entry.

This code change correctly removes the entry. That said, this behavior, although weird, has been there from the beginning since PKCS12 keystore was introduced. If you can find out a usage of a private key entry without any certificate and think it's worth kept that way, I can simply remove the `remove` call and leave the entry there. ------------- Commit messages: - 8279066: Still see private key entries without certificates in a PKCS12 keystore Changes: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/6910/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.java.net/?repo=jdk&pr=6910&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8279066 Stats: 94 lines in 3 files changed: 87 ins; 0 del; 7 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/6910.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk pull/6910/head:pull/6910 PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/6910
