The graph looks nice, but it's huge.
Almost 1Mbyte.
The largest .svg file in the kernel tree is 200k.

Also it doesn't seem to add too much additional info
vs what's described in the text.
I suggest to drop .svg and stick to text only.
Or draw a text only diagram, but it doesn't look necessary in this case.
