This patch creates wordpart.h and includes it in asm/word-at-a-time.h for all architectures. WORD_AT_A_TIME_CONSTANTS depends on kernel.h because of REPEAT_BYTE. Moving this to another header and including it where necessary allows us to not include the bloated kernel.h. Making this implicit dependency on REPEAT_BYTE explicit allows for later improvements in the lib/string.c inclusion list.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
