The calibration process is attempting to discover the RGB value that most
accurately produces the target grey level for that step of the calibrated
response curve. This is a numerical inversion problem.

About the profile, I still got bad banding when I try to use the generated

There doesn't seem anything particularly notable about the calibration or the 
profile,
except that there seems to be a fair level of blue at the black point. This
is reflected in the black points color, and the blue channel response
curve. Without knowing how you are using the profile (ie. how your
RGB test file is being transformed), it's not possible to say much
more about it.
