I think we can do that, while still supporting Org's minimum Emacs
version, by following python.el.  Here's what it does:

  (with-no-warnings
    ;; supress warnings about eldoc-documentation-function being obsolete
    (if (null eldoc-documentation-function)
        ;; Emacs<25
        (set (make-local-variable 'eldoc-documentation-function)
             #'python-eldoc-function)
      (if (boundp 'eldoc-documentation-functions)
          (add-hook 'eldoc-documentation-functions #'python-eldoc-function nil t)
        (add-function :before-until (local 'eldoc-documentation-function)
                      #'python-eldoc-function))))

And then...

>> -  (if (boundp 'eldoc-documentation-functions)
>> -      (add-hook 'eldoc-documentation-functions
>> -		#'org-eldoc-documentation-function nil t)
>> -    (setq-local eldoc-documentation-function
>> -		#'org-eldoc-documentation-function)))
>> +  (cond
>> +   ((boundp 'eldoc-documentation-strategy)
>> +    (setq-local eldoc-documentation-strategy
>> +		#'org-eldoc-documentation-function))
>> +   ((boundp 'eldoc-documentation-functions)
>> +    (add-hook 'eldoc-documentation-functions
>> +	      #'org-eldoc-documentation-function nil t))

... org-eldoc-documentation-function's signature could be changed to
(&rest _ignored), like python-eldoc-function's.
