Martin Panter added the comment:

Here is a possible patch for 3.5+ based on my modest understanding of the 
concerns about insecure results and blocking. I hope that my wording is clear, 
couldn’t be confused with Linux’s /dev/random blocking and running out of fresh 
entropy, etc.

I also tried to make it clearer what APIs are used in what circumstances. It is 
not just Linux: we also call getrandom() on Solaris, because its getentropy() 
is not good enough.
