Because allocating a parameter RAM slot is different from
allocating a DMA channel.

If you want to allocate a channel, so so explicitly; you
will also get an associated RAM slot.

But by asking for a slot, you've said you want to get ONLY
that RAM slot, and will be using it with some channel you
have already allocated.
