If this gets in in the current form, all other platforms will have
their log polluted by these messages. For most pipeline handlers I
assume with the appropriate knowledge if applications are not
instrumented to pass in a valid color space, it can be adjusted to
something meaningul. But what about the simple pipeline handler which
works with devices that simply transfer to application streams in
YUV/RGB formats produced by the sensor ? What colorspace should
pipeline handler adjust to ?
