How to transform each YUV_420_888 frame to RGB efficiently (e.g., using renderscript yuv2rgb.rs) in Android camera2?

I am building a image processing program using Android camera2. Since the image format of each captured frame is YUV_420_888, I need to transform it to RGB efficiently for image processing. I googled and read a lot (especially the following two links), and finally found that renderscript may be the solution. However, I don't know how to use the yuv2rgb script in my code.

Convert android.media.Image (YUV_420_888) to Bitmap

Currently, I use the TextureView surface to show the preview, and use ImageReader to capture each YUV_420_888 frame in onImageAvailable function.

   protected void createCameraPreview() {
    try {
        SurfaceTexture texture = textureView.getSurfaceTexture();
        assert texture != null;
        texture.setDefaultBufferSize(imageDimension.getWidth(), imageDimension.getHeight());
        Surface surface = new Surface(texture);
        Surface mImageSurface = mImageReader.getSurface();
        captureRequestBuilder =    cameraDevice.createCaptureRequest(CameraDevice.TEMPLATE_PREVIEW);
        captureRequestBuilder.addTarget(surface)
        List surfaces = new ArrayList<>();
        surfaces.add(surface);
        surfaces.add(mImageSurface);
        captureRequestBuilder.addTarget(mImageSurface);
     cameraCaptureSessions.setRepeatingRequest(captureRequestBuilder.build(), null, mBackgroundHandler);

        cameraDevice.createCaptureSession(surfaces, new CameraCaptureSession.StateCallback(){
                    @Override
                    public void onConfigured(@NonNull CameraCaptureSession cameraCaptureSession) {
                        //The camera is already closed
                        if (null == cameraDevice) {
                            return;
                        }
                        // When the session is ready, we start displaying the preview.
                        cameraCaptureSessions = cameraCaptureSession;
                        updatePreview();
                    }
                    @Override
                    public void onConfigureFailed(@NonNull CameraCaptureSession cameraCaptureSession) {
                        Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Configuration change", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    }
                }, null);
        } catch (CameraAccessException e) {
             e.printStackTrace();
        }
}


  private final ImageReader.OnImageAvailableListener mOnImageAvailableListener  = new ImageReader.OnImageAvailableListener() {
    @Override
    public void onImageAvailable(ImageReader reader) {
        Image img = null;
        img = reader.acquireNextImage(); // we got YUV_420_888 frame here
        // transform to RGB format here?
        // image processing
    }
};

How to update my codes to achieve the goal (e.g., using the yuv2rgb.rs)? Thanks.

The camera2 sample application HdrViewfinder, which uses RenderScript to do some image processing, may be helpful for how to connect up the camera and RenderScript: https://github.com/googlesamples/android-HdrViewfinder

It doesn't do YUV->RGB conversion, IIRC, and I think yuv2rgb.rs may be intended for a different YUV colorspace than what the camera produces (due to backwards-compatibility concerns - it existed before camera2). But it gets you to the point where you can write your own RS script to apply to camera data.
