Lighting that happens to be in a soffit. That sounds like a smart-aleck answer, but it's actually correct.

A soffit is a particular type of architectural feature. A term that is not quite synonymous, but will probably give you a better idea of what kind of lighting we're talking about, is "recessed lighting": the holder for the lamp goes up inside the ceiling rather than hanging down below it.
