I found recently that bug 1385396 will regress bug 1372824 on beta because we're initializing gfx too early in startup and caching the default e10s "off" value before the rollout addon has a chance to set the pref.

I propose adding to the house of cards by setting the pref before setting the cohort, causing us to cache the correct value in setCohort. With any luck, by Firefox 57, we'll be able to set the default to true for everybody and get rid of all of this code.
