This patch creates wordpart.h and includes it in asm/word-at-a-time.h
for the 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.

Same comments as per v4 apply here.
According to the Submitting Patches the best time between versions is
~1w. I understand your desire to close this quicker, but the result is
actually the opposite. Take your time and check carefully what others
commented and recommended. With this series it's fine to send a couple
of times per (working) week. It sounds to me balanced between the
complexity of the change and the people's willingness (having time?)
to review.

Otherwise it's a good start!
