Ah, I'd missed that Martin was talking about the other way around from #27990. Yes, I think it's worth documenting that os.getrandom() may raise OSError if the running kernel doesn't provide the syscall - that's going to be pretty easy to trigger by running a container with Python 3.6 on a container host running an older Linux kernel.
