p54: disable channels with incomplete calibration data sets
James Grossmann [1] reported that p54 spews out confusing messages instead of preventing the mayhem from happening. the reason is that "p54: generate channel list dynamically" is not perfect. It didn't discard incomplete channel data sets and therefore p54 advertised to support them as well.
