281 *
282 * Schedule a slow work item for processing. If the item is already undergoing
283 * execution, this guarantees not to re-enter the execution routine until the
284 * first execution finishes.
285 *
286 * The item is pinned by this function as it retains a reference to it, managed
287 * through the item operations. The item is unpinned once it has been
288 * executed.
289 *
290 * An item may hog the thread that is running it for a relatively large amount
291 * of time, sufficient, for example, to perform several lookup, mkdir, create
292 * and setxattr operations. It may sleep on I/O and may sleep to obtain locks.
293 *
294 * Conversely, if a number of items are awaiting processing, it may take some
295 * time before any given item is given attention. The number of threads in the
296 * pool may be increased to deal with demand, but only up to a limit.
297 *
298 * If SLOW_WORK_VERY_SLOW is set on the work item, then it will be placed in
299 * the very slow queue, from which only a portion of the threads will be
300 * allowed to pick items to execute. This ensures that very slow items won't
301 * overly block ones that are just ordinarily slow.
