According to the editors of the site, the C10 driver intended for the display of the Pixel 7, codenamed Cheetah. The Pixel 7 Pro gets the P10 driver and the phone is codenamed Panther. The site has those code names discovered earlier†

The C10 driver speaks of a display with a resolution of 1080 by 2400 pixels and a refresh rate of 90Hz. The 7 Pro will have a display of 1440 by 3120 pixels and a refresh rate of 120Hz. The exact displays mentioned in the code are the S6E3FC3 and S6E3HC3; identical to the Pixel 6 series.
