The MigrationInfo::setup-time documentation is the only place where we use _this_ inline markup for emphasis, commonly rendered in italics. rST doesn't recognize that markup and emits literal underscores.
Switch to *this* instead. Changes markup to strong emphasis with Texinfo, commonly rendered as bold. With rST, it will go right back to emphasis / italics. rST also uses **this** for strong (commonly rendered bold) where Texinfo uses *this*. We have one place in the doc comments which uses strong/bold markup, in qapi/introspect.json: Note: the QAPI schema is also used to help define *internal* When we switch to rST that will be rendered as emphasis / italics. Markus (who wrote that) thinks that using emphasis / italics there is an improvement, so we leave that markup alone.
