 * @abstract A QOS class which indicates work performed by this thread was not
 * initiated by the user and that the user may be unaware of the results.
 * @discussion Such work is requested to run at a priority far below other work
 * including significant I/O throttling. The use of this QOS class indicates
 * the work should be run in the most energy and thermally-efficient manner
 * possible, and may be deferred for a long time in order to preserve
 * system responsiveness for the user.
 * This is SPI for use by Spotlight and Time Machine only.
