Bug Description

The extension string for EGL is: "eglCreatePbufferFromClientBuffer EGL_KHR_image EGL_KHR_image_base EGL_KHR_image_pixmap EGL_AMD_create_image"

The substring "eglCreatePbufferFromClientBuffer" is not a proper extension name. That being said, as long as this is intentional and not the result of some programming error it's fine.

This seems absolutely intentional, although the function is standard in EGL 1.2 and above, so it's not really needed. It seems to be an AMD/Qualcomm quirk picked up over the years and is present on many devices.

We could probably comment it out as it is part of the EGL 1.4 ABI, after we confirm barely anything uses it.

Removing it as I can't find any code which checks for this extension whatsoever..
