Unless you're putting the EFI System Partition (ESP) on the RAID10, you 
should be fine.

Note that the ESP also needs ot be FAT32, so you can't have it as a part 
of your btrfs RAID10 array, so if that's what you are asking, it can't 
be done. An ESP located somewhere else should still be able to boot from 
a rootfs in the RAID10 however, so your OS can be on the RAID.
