Might be worth including more info on what KVM and Xen are, and why the upgrade is desirable? Something like
Changes a Linode's hypervisor from Xen (legacy) to KVM (modern). Doing this restarts and migrates the Linode, and can take several minutes depending on the size of the Linode. Upgrading to KVM has significant performances improvements, including a 300% boost in Unixbench scores and faster boots and shutdowns. This endpoint will only work for Linodes running on the Xen hypervisor.
