The attributes EGL_YUV_DEPTH_RANGE_EXT and EGL_YUV_CSC_STANDARD_EXT does not affect anything that EGL would care about. These attributes instead encodes information that each client API would have to know in order to access the data in these surfaces. ...However, the only client-api specification that uses these (GL_EXT_YUV_target) leaves this up to the fragment shader, so these attributes has no effect. There's also not anything to match against here; color-space and ranges are typically not a part of a pixel-format specification.

I agree with saying they have no effect. But I don't think we should remove any enums, they are part of API, they need to continue in the header file.
