It's true there could be a different device on /dev/urandom, but by my reading
of the getrandom() manpage I think that *should* be transparent since
By default, getrandom() draws entropy from the /dev/urandom pool. This
behavior can be changed via the flags argument.
and we don't pass the GRND_RANDOM flag to getrandom().
