Hi.  Thank you for the patch.
It looks good to me.  I found a couple of minor nits, but the patch is
OK with these fixed.

Mihails> +/* Create and initialize a BFD handle from a target in-memory range.  */
Mihails> +
Mihails> +gdb_bfd_ref_ptr
Mihails> +gdb_bfd_open_from_target_memory (CORE_ADDR addr, ULONGEST size,
Mihails> +				 const char *target,
Mihails> +				 const char *filename = nullptr);

In the style style, the return type isn't separated from the function
name in a declaration.

Mihails> +  gdb_bfd_ref_ptr nbfd (gdb_bfd_open_from_target_memory (
Mihails> +      code_entry->symfile_addr, code_entry->symfile_size, gnutarget));

The formatting here looks weird.  Normally breaks would occur before "(".
