top: Prevent buffer overflow in calibrate_... REVERTED

Browse Source 
Here, again, we have an example of attacking a problem
by addressing the symptoms. And that assertion made in
the original commit message is true if only if someone
had manually (maliciously) edited the top config file.

So let's reverse the original patch & thus prepare for
a proper solution addressing the cause, not a symptom.
