I think you'd better look at all places that test dynsymcount.  For
instance, bfd_elf_size_dynsym_hash_dynstr.

This should really have been done when you committed
https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2016-02/msg00326.html and that
patch should have explained why the change was made.  "We should
always create the dynsym section, even if it is empty, with dynamic
sections" doesn't explain anything about why the change was made.  In
fact, the explanation for the patch was no better than "We should do
what this patch does".
