Actually, we can mask instance units, so "obviously" is not true.
And we can also "concretize" instance units by adding a normal
unit file for the instance. I tweaked your patch to just
ignore ENOENT for instance units, but perform the checks.

Actually links can appear not just in /etc, so this part of the
description is misleading.
