R10 EQU 10 simply means use the value of 10. It has nothing to do with register 
10 except when used in a place where a register is expected.

In this case the instruction MVC O(L,R),O(R) has 2 registers. O is offsets. 
Using R10 in those positions will simply use the equated value of 10. You will 
need to add the registers together before doing the move.

Use of R10 is simply a way to make the code a little more readable.
