I don't think we need to split for active and done. Active will be 1 as 
long as other pads are in calibration as well.

We cant use active status check for specific pads under calibration. 
This is common bit for all pads.

Unfortunately HW don't have separate status indicating when sequence is 
done to indicate its waiting for LP11.


To avoid all this, will remove cancel_calibration() totally and use same 
finish calibration even in case of stream failure then.
