Looks good to me.  I've pushed it, as below.  The "tiny change"
marker is just an indication that the patch was small
enough to not require copyright assignment.  If you'd like
to contribute more changes, contact me offlist, and I'll get
you started on the process.

Thanks!

P.S.: The qSymbol lookup iterates over all object_files.  ISTM
we could check if that list is empty instead of checking
for symfile_objfile explicitly, but I didn't want to force
another patch iteration until there's a need for that.

Subject: [PATCH] Call remote_check_symbols even if only symbol-file (not
 file) has been given

The Eclipse "C/C++ GDB Hardware Debugging" plugin runs only the
"symbol-file" command.  In this case, remote_check_symbols is not
called and no qSymbol:: packet is sent to the server (OpenOCD in my
case).
