Probably. (Does this mean we've never been correctly setting
CONFIG_ATOMIC128?)

I think we should have the 128-bit atomics check in meson.build
look the same as the existing one for 64-bit atomics, though,
unless there's a reason why they should look different.
For the 64-bit version we explicitly pass __ATOMIC_RELAXED,
and we use __atomic_load_n(), not __atomic_load().
